b. 225-226

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

Slur to b. 226 in A

Slur to end of b. 225 in FE (→GE,EE)
..

As in b. 217-218, we regard both source versions of the ending of the slur in b. 217 as potentially compliant with Chopin's intention; however, in the main text we reproduce the literal interpretation of the notation of A.

b. 225-227

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

b. 225-227

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

..

In the main text we add a cautionary  to a1 in b. 225. A respective accidental in b. 227 was already added by FE (→GE,EE), most probably at Chopin's request – cf. b. 217-219, in which Chopin wrote this  in A the second time, i.e. in b. 219.

Additional crotchet suggested by the editors

A comparison with all analogous figures (b. 217, 219 and 227) proves Chopin's inadvertence here.
