b. 174

composition: Op. 26 No 2, Polonaise in E♭ minor

Slur in A, GE & EE

No slur in FE

..

In FE the oversight of the clearly written slur in A seems to be a mistake. However, taking into account the recitative and culminant character of this motif, one cannot exclude the deletion of the slur by Chopin in the proofreading of FE1. In GE and EE the slur was added probably after analogy with the previous bars.

b. 174-175

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

 in bar 174 in GC (→GE)

 in bar 175 in FE (→EE1)

 in EE2

A comparison with FE, which is also based on [A], suggests that the  hairpin in GC (→GE) was misplaced – cf. b. 171. The copyist's momentary distraction is also supported by the fact that the slur ends too early (see the next note). Two marks in EE2 probably result from a comparison with the version of GE.

b. 174-176

composition: Op. 19, Bolero

 

No slurs in FE (→EE1)

Slurs in EE2 (→EE3)

Our variant suggestion

..

The slurs encompassing two quavers in the L.H. at the transition between bars 174 and 175 and 175 and 176 are present only in GE, in which they could have been added by Chopin. EE2 (→EE3) also have slurs in these places, perhaps under the influence of GE; however, the slurs combine the bottom notes of the dyads and they were arbitrarily added for all double quavers in the L.H. in bars 174-177.

b. 174

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

Whole-bar slur in A

Half-bar slurs in GE (→FEEE)

..

The division of the slur is certainly an arbitrary change of GE (→FEEE).

b. 174

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

..

The naturals before fourths, opening each of the group of semiquavers, are written in A (→GE1FE) only in the 1st and 4th groups. EE and GE2 include the correct text.
