b. 261

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

Long accent in A (→GE)

Short accent in FE (→EE)

, our alternative suggestion

 & , our complementing suggestion

..

Noteworthy is the similarity, despite the inaccurate reproduction of the accent, of versions of A and FE – cf. the other three analogous places where these sources differ significantly (bars 94, 98 and 265). This may mean, among other things, that this place was accidentally omitted in Chopin’s additions or corrections to the markings in [FC] or the proofs of FE1. Taking account of this possibility, we propose – as an alternative or supplement to the main text, based on the version of A – a  hairpin modelled on the indications of FE in three previous analogous places – see bars 93-97.

b. 261-262

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

Slur to c2 in b. 261 in A (→GE)

Slur to c2 in b. 262 in FE (→EE)

..

As in bars 94-95, the difference in the slur's range probably results from the inaccurate interpretation of the 'encompassing' A slur, yet this time the excessively long slur appears in FE (→EE). In the main text we provide the A slur, compliant with the phrase structure, correctly interpreted in GE.

b. 261

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

No extra slur in A (→GE)

Extra slur in FE (→EE)

..

The additional slur in FE (→EE) is part of an irregular group marking. Chopin would generally insert such slurs along with a digit determining the number of notes in such a group (e.g. in a similar context in bar 98 in A); however, he would often omit them or included in longer phrase marks. In this case the slur must have been added to [FC] or FE1, yet it seems highly unlikely that it could have been done by Chopin.

In the L.H. part EE1 overlooked both flats to d2 in these bars. The mistakes were corrected in EE2.
