Those obvious inaccuracies in the three editons obscure deciphering Chopin's intentions regarding slurring of the part. In the main text we present the slurs notated without clear faults in GC. They represent possible articulationn of the chords progression. While interpreting the slur in # EE we assume that the error applies to b. 600 (half of the line spanning bars 598-600 has no slurs in EE). We retain the slurs in GE as despite the inaccurate copy of the basis (GC) they are formally correct. The FE slurs may be interpreted in a variety of ways, among others as distorted GC slurs or as the aforementioned. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , EE inaccuracies |

For the main text we adopt the musically indisputable GC hairpins (→GE2, omitted in GE1). The corresponding mark in EE seems to be placed inaccurately - crescendo on the the resounding chord is in fact impossible to execute on the grand piano. No sign in FE may indicate a less carerful edition of execution markings in [A2] (cf. annotation to b. 373)

According to us, the placement of the mark, which we interpret as a long accent, is probably inaccurate in FE – admittedly, Chopin would often use a combination, yet both indications would be then written next to each other and on the same level. In this case, the accent was supposedly to concern both parts and not the L.H. only, which is suggested by the notation of FE (→GE). A short accent in GE3 is a result of interpretation of the discussed mark, performed in the light of bar 646. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Long accents , Placement of markings , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies |

The accents in b. 776 and 778 in A are clearly longer than the 3 previous ones, which was not reproduced in EE and GE. Moreover, EE in b. 778 and GE2 (→GE3) in both bars assigned separate accents to each of the hands. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies |
