b. 268-269

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Separate slurs in A (→FC→GE1, →FE→EE) & GE3

Continuous slur in GE2

The reviser of GE2 assimilated the slurring over the b. 268-269 and 288-289 with the slurring of an analogous phrase in b. 369-370. It is difficult to find a justification for that decision: the unquestionable text was changed in three places (also in b. 390-391) on the basis of the fourth, questionable one (the notation of FC in b. 369-370 actually does not suggest a combination of the slurs). Therefore, it comes as no surprise that GE3 returned to the authentic version.

b. 268

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

The second half of the bar is written in the sources even more carelessly than in b. 264. In FE (→GE1), there is no  before a3 on the 4th quaver of the bar; the  restoring a3 in the last chord is also missing. These accidentals were added in EE and GE2 (→GE3). Moreover, FE (→GE1,EE) are lacking in the flats restoring b1 and b in the last two L.H. quavers. The mistake was partially corrected – only on the 5th quaver of the bar – only in GE2 (→GE3). See also the preceding note.
