The missing staccato dot in FE (→EE) is probably an oversight of the engraver, hence we add it in the main text. The reviser of GE also added a dot. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , EE inaccuracies |

In this place, the absence of slurs must be considered Chopin's oversight. In the main text, we suggest slurs modelled after analogous bars 81-86. Slurs were added also in GE3, which took as an example its own slurring in bars 81-83 (the slur in the next bars was not added). See also bars 312-313. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: GE revisions |

In A one can see that the last two crotchets in the bar were initially provided with stems pointing down. The change emphasised their affiliation to the top voice, despite the fact that the bottom one had not yet begun. It was only after that correction that Chopin changed the slurring concept. category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Deletions in A |

The deletions in A show the formation process of the slurring concept of this theme. Chopin started from the slurs encompassing only two crotchets in b. 309 and 311 (the slur in b. 309, led under the notes, suggests that he could have meant slurs reaching the 1st note of the next bar). However, eventually, he wrote a three-bar phrase marks.

The oversight of the staccato dot by the sources based directly on A is justified, to a certain extent, since the small sign is placed not only above the note, but also above the ending of the slur, so that one could have easily overlooked it. The fact that Chopin almost certainly meant a dot in this place is proven by analogous b. 411, in which a more distinct mark was noticed by the copyist. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Errors of FC |
