b. 375

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

No marks in AsI

Wedge above b1 in A

2 wedges in GE (→FE,EE)

..

We consider the added wedge in the L.H. part to be an apt specification of articulation, regardless of whether it was done at Chopin's request or not. In AsI staccato marks are absent both here and in the next bar, while the slur over these bars (see bar 376) proves that it was not caused solely by the working nature of the manuscript; back then, Chopin was most probably still pondering this kind of performance.

b. 376-377

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

g tied in EE and GE

No tie in GC and FE

The tie on g in EE must be an error - in corresponding bars 34-35 in EE there is no tie. And the tie in GE must be a revision. See annotation in 377.

Differences in placement of  - between the beginning of b. 376 in FE and b. 377 in EE - are mostly accidental and have no impact on performance. Our proposal presented in the main text seems to be the best for practical reasons.

Bar 376 is the last one on the page in A, which provoked an uncertainty concerning the issue of slurring – the slur in this bar clearly points to continuation, yet in bar 377 a new slur begins. The easiest interpretation of this notation is the version of GE1; however, the version of FE and one slur of GE2 can be considered to be justified. In the main text we suggest the version of GE2, due to the analogy with bars 32-33.

In A, the quavers in bar 376, the last on this page, are encompassed with a slur, which clearly points to continuation, yet in bar 377 there is no ending of this slur. Chopin did not write any slurs in the L.H. until the end of this Solo, hence it seems that he renounced the slurring in the L.H. in this fragment, considering the slurs in the R.H. to be enough. Due to this reason, in the main text we omit the described fragment of the slur. It may be possible that the absence of continuation of the slurring is only a result of haste, particularly since in analogous bars 32-33 the slurs in A are written in the parts of both hands. Therefore, the slur of GE1, completed after the R.H., and the slurs of EE and GE2 can be considered to be compliant with Chopin's intention.
