b. 363

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt III

No slur in FE (→GE1→GE2)

Slur in EE & GE3
..

The missing slur in FE (→GE1→GE2) must be an oversight – slurs are present in similar figures both before (bar 361) and after (bars 369 and 371). Therefore, in the main text we include the addition introduced in EE and GE3.

As before (bars 349-352), in A Chopin writes accidentals only to the top notes of the octaves (in the R.H. and in the L.H.). He then considers these accidentals to be valid throughout an entire bar in all octaves of a given stave. All the omitted accidentals – 27 flats to d and g and 2 naturals to e – were already added in GE1 and were repeated in the remaining editions.
In the main text we omit the  to the d3 semiquaver in bar 363, unnecessarily repeated by Chopin. We do not include the  to the next semiquaver, d2, either, added in GE (→FE,EE).

b. 363-364

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

..

The slurs were being corrected in A, which is evidenced by the traces of erasures in the R.H. part and by the shape of the first L.H. slur. In the R.H. in bar 363 the first slur encompassed 2 triplets, while the second one started from g2. In the L.H. the slur in bar 363 reached only the last octave in this bar.
