b. 7-10

composition: Op. 28 No. 3, Prelude in G major

..

FCI does not contain any accidentals in the R.H. part in these bars. The missing sharps in b. 7 and 9 are a patent inaccuracy (formally speaking, a cautionary  in b. 10 is not indispensable due to the presence of corresponding sharps in the L.H., i.e. raising c1 to c1). Such an incomplete notation was probably present already in the lost autograph that served as the basis for this copy, since it seems unlikely that the copyist would selectively omit marks on the top stave (see also b. 16-17).
There is no  in bar 7 in FC, too – the visible accidental was pencilled in by H. Scholtz, the later owner of FC. The obvious oversight was corrected in GE.

An earlier version of slurring linked to the initial rhythm – see the note on rhythm. It is also there that we discuss the mistakes in the reproduction of the slurs of A, committed both in FC (→GE) and FE (→EE).

Slur in A

No slur in FC (→GE) & FE (→EE)

The small slur combining the trilled crotchet with the quaver that opens the next bar was overlooked both in FC (→GE) and FE (→EE).

2 slurs in A

1 slur in FE (→EE)

Triplet slurs in bat 8 in FC (→GE)

..

In spite of the unequivocal notation of A, the L.H. slurs were reproduced erroneously both in FC (→GE) and FE (→EE). Fontana omitted both slurs of A; however, he provided the triplets in b. 8 with conventional slurs (he also did it in b. 12). In turn, it is difficult to say what could have prompted the engraver of FE to combine the slurs, which is contrary to the notation of A.

b. 7-12

composition: Op. 28 No. 21, Prelude in B♭ major

Slurs in A (→FEEE)

No slurs in FC (→GE)

..

The missing L.H. slurs in FC (→GE) beginning in b. 7 and 11 (as well as 12 – see note in this bar) most probably resulted from the copyist's inadvertence.
