b. 335-336

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

Slurs in FE (→EE), contextual interpretation

Slurs in GE
..

Before the first semiquaver of bar 336 (which starts the new line), FE (→EE) has an ending of slur from above. However, the slur in bar 335 reaches only the last semiquaver in that bar, almost certainly by mistake – cf. slurs in bars 327-328. The inconsistency of slurring was removed in GE by omitting the end of slur in bar 336, and starting a new slur from the 1st note of this bar. This is certainly an arbitrary revision.

b. 335

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

Quaver d​​​​​​​1 in FE (→GE1→GE2) & EE3

Crotchet d​​​​​​​1 ​​​​​​​in EE1 (→EE2) & GE3
..

Like in bar 333, prolongation of d1 is unjustified here – the sound result of that procedure is imperceptible when preserving the authentic dynamics.

b. 335

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

For how to understand Chopin's rhythmic notation see bar 27.

b. 335-337

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

No marks in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

Staccato dots in GE3
..

GE3 arbitrarily provided the last quaver in bar 335 and the first two in bars 336-337 with staccato dots (in the latter only in the R.H.).
