b. 171

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III

No slur in A

New slur in GE (→FE)

Slur continued in EE
..

In the main text we give the slur added – probably by Chopin – in the proofreading of GE (→FE). A Chopin proofreading seems to be likely in this case, since in the entire phrase (bars 168-176), in spite of a few inaccuracies, Chopin marked with dots and slurs the parts of both hands; moreover, one can assume his participation in adding slurs in the L.H. in GE1 also in adjacent bars (bars 169-170 and analog.).

b. 171-172

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III

Triplet slur in A & EE

Slur in GE1 (→FE)

Slur in GE2

2 slurs suggested by the editors
..

The absence of the first slur is most probably Chopin's oversight. The slur added in GE1 (→FE) probably comes from Chopin; however, it could have been inaccurately reproduced, and it is the slur of GE2 that is compliant with the composer's intention. The slur of EE is a result of a unifying revision of the slurs on the basis of the part of the R.H. In the main text we give two slurs modelled after the slurs in the R.H.

b. 171-175

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt III

No L.H. slurs in FE

Slurs in GE & EE
..

The missing slurs of FE must be an inaccuracy of notation – except minor inaccuracies, in the entire theme, both here and in bars 415-449, identical slurs are written in the parts of both hands. Slurs were added both in GE and EE.

b. 171-173

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No markings in A (→FE→EE)

Pedalling in FC (→GE)
..

In the main text we include the pedalling added by Chopin in b. 172 in FC (→GE). In A one can see a correction of pedalling: the  mark, initially written at the end of the phrase (b. 173), was deleted and written at the end of b. 171.
