b. 222-224

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

Slur in GC

No slur in FE! (→FE2)

Slur in GE & FE3 (→FE4)

Slur in EE

..

The slur added – most probably by Chopin – in the proofreading of FE3 (→FE4) clearly shows that according to the composer's intention, it was not supposed to reach the next bar. The longer slur of EE may be considered in this situation an inaccurate interpretation of the slur added in the base text by Chopin (cf. bars 36-37) or an editorial revision on the basis of the analogous place of the first section of Scherzo.

b. 222-223

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

2 slurs in A

4 slurs in GE1 (→FEEE)

2 slurs in GE2

..

The second slur under the groups of small notes is written in A (→GE1FEEE) inaccurately – it might have been ink stoppage. In this situation, it is possible that an additional slur, complementing the slurring of this group in GE1 (→FEEE), was added at Chopin's request as a simplified proofreading of this inaccuracy. In turn, it is difficult to say what the motivation of the engraver of GE1 at the time of dividing the slur in bar 222 was. GE2 restored the slur of A in bar 222 and led the slur in bar 223 in an analogous way. In the main text we give the last version, being, according to us, closest to Chopin's intention.

b. 222

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

Different accents in A

No marks in GE1 (→FEEE)

Short accents in GE2

..

No accents on the 2nd and 4th crotchets in the bar is certainly an oversight of the engraver of GE1 (→FEEE). In GE2 the mistake was corrected; however, the differences between the accents were not taken into account.

b. 222-223

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

..

Three naturals are missing in A – before the 3rd quaver in bar 222 (d1) and 223 (e1) and before the bottom note of the 3rd octave in bar 222. These patent inaccuracies were corrected in GE (→FEEE). Similar defects are present also in the next bars.

b. 222-223

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

Continuous slur in A

2 slurs in GE (→FEEE)

..

Breaking the slur – contrary to the unmistakable notation of A – is an inaccuracy of the engraver of GE1, who did not take care of an appropriate extension of the slur at the end of the line (in bar 222) and an earlier start at the beginning of the next one (in bar 223).
