Both the earlier beginning of the slur in the editions and the division of the slur in GE1 are results of an inaccuracy typical for the engraver of this edition. The latter was corrected both in FE (→EE) and GE2. See also the note on slurs in the L.H. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE |

The slur in the L.H. reaches in A only the end of bar 227 (or the beginning of the next one), which may be explained by incompletion (Chopin forgot to end the slur) or abandonment (Chopin resigned from ending the slur in the face of the slur in the R.H.). The second possibility is supported by the fact that until bar 240 no other passage in the L.H. has a separate slur. In this situation, can we consider the slurs of GE1 (→FE→EE) to be inspired by Chopin? In the proofreading, the composer might have added one slur implemented by the engraver as four half-bar slurs, with which he facilitated his work. In this situation, in the main text we suggest extending the slur of A to the beginning of bar 229, in accordance with the most likely interpretation of the slur of the R.H. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccurate slurs in A , GE revisions |

The notation of accidentals in this passage is very inaccurate in A, particularly in the part of the R.H., in which only the 1st half of bar 228 includes all necessary signs. Luckily, it does not impede the correct interpretation of the text. In the editions the signs were gradually added, but only GE2 and EE3 have the fully correct text. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE , Accidentals in different octaves , Errors in EE , Errors in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE , Inaccuracies in A |
