In A the R.H. phrase mark ends abruptly between the last two notes in this bar, so both FC (→GE) and FE (→EE) led it to the last crotchet. However, a comparison with analogous b. 382-383 shows that such a literal interpretation of the phrase mark of A is incorrect, since the second time Chopin dragged the slur further, to the beginning of b. 383. At the same time, the way the ending of the slur is written down there, differently than in b. 280, suggests a conscious, deliberate movement of the pen. Therefore, in the main text we suggest a longer phrase mark. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccurate slurs in A |

The missing slur in FC (→GE1) must be an oversight of the copyist. The slur was added in GE2 (→GE3), most probably on the basis of comparison with analogous b. 382-383 as well as 305-306 & 407-408. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Errors of FC |

The missing lower slur must be an oversight by the engraver of GE1. Such multiple slurs were used by Chopin quite rarely, most often in his early pieces – cf. the combination of chords in bar 266 or 295-296, or pairs of octaves in the Concerto in F minor, Op. 21, mov. III, bars 472-480. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE |

EE does not have the treble clef in this bar, which is an obvious error. The correct clef in placed in bar 283 that opens a new line of text. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in EE |

mark as a slur (pcf. the note to bars 280-282). This is why in our main text we suggest, by using brackets, the possibility of disregarding that slur.
