b. 7-9

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt II

Two slurs in GC (→GE)

No slurs in FE

Slur in FE based on bars 195-196

Our alternative suggestion

Slur in EE, literal reading

Slur in EE, possible interpretation

..

Determining Chopin's intention concerning the slurring of bar 8 (together with adjacent chords) encounters difficulties. The composer's idea can be represented both in the source versions and in our suggestions, considering a possible oversight of the engraver of FE. It is the versions of GC (the main text) and two versions based on the reconstructed on the basis of the reprise slur of FE that we consider to be most reliable, as far as the sources are concerned, and pianistically natural.
