b. 605-608

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

No slurs in EE & FE

Slur in GC & GE2

Alternative reading of slurs in GC.

Slur in GE1, contextual interpretation

..

The slur over these bars exists only in GC in bars  573-576, which here are repeated with a change of the beginning. Since the slur in GC begins in b. 604 on the previous page on the last chord. A question arises here how to connect this slur with a slur over the four-bar section in 605-608. We assume them to be one slur, and as such it is the copied in GE2 (in GE1 there  are no slurs in bars 604-607, which is an obvious error. However, another solution may be proposed here where only bars 605-608 are slurred and the slur in b. 604 ends on the sixth beginning in b. 605.

b. 605

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No mark in A (→FEEE)

Staccato dot in FC (→GE)

..

The missing staccato mark in A (→FEEE) seems to be an oversight of Chopin, since corresponding marks are present in the three remaining, analogous b. 22, 46 and 154. The dot in FC seems to have been added after the remaining signs (note and slur) had already been written. Due to very numerous unquestionably Chopinesque additions in FC, it is also here that we can assume Chopin's correction.

in GE1

Just like in analogous b. 154, the indication , instead of , must be a mistake of the engraver of GE1. The mistake was corrected in GE2 (→GE3).

b. 606-610

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

No slurs in EE

Slurs in GC (→GE) & FE

..

The #E - without slurs - most probably copies the initial stage of the noatation of motifs of LH in bars 606 and 609-610. In the main text we present the consistent notation of slurs in GC (→GE) and FE. Cf. bars 573-574 and 577-578.
