b. 493

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In A (→FC→GE1, →FE→EE1) there is no accidental before the last crotchet in the R.H. It must be a mistake, cf., e.g. analogous b. 497. Oversight of an accidental necessary for writing a note belonging to a currently valid key is one of Chopin's most frequent mistakes. A natural was added only just in GE2 (→GE3) and EE2 (→EE3); it was also added in FESf.

b. 541-542

No slur in FE (→GE1→GE2)

New slur in EE

Extension of slur to end of bar 541 in GE3

Extension of slur to bar 542 suggested by the editors
..

The missing slur must be inadvertence. In EE, the slurring was completed in the simplest manner by adding a slur over the part of the phrase without it. In the main text, we suggest an adequate extension of the slur from the previous bar, in accordance with the slurs in all 5 analogous places. A similar revision was introduced in GE3; however, the slur was led only to the last semiquaver in bar 541.
