It is difficult to say which version of slurring is later – Chopin could have separated the initial continuous slur while correcting [A] before handing it over to the copyist; however, the slightly undulating shape of the slur in FE could be indicating that the slurs were being combined in the proofreading of this edition. A possible correction is also supported by likely corrections in the two previous bars (rhythm and pedalling). Taking into account the above, in the main text we give the FE version, regarding the FC slurs, indicating the beginning of a new theme, as equal. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

In these bars the pedalling in FC was added by Chopin. As it is also present in FE, Chopin most probably added it later also while proofreading FE. In this entire theme (bars 33-64) the pedalling in the basis for FC, that is [A], was marked only in 4 bars – bars 33-34 and 39-40. category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Authentic corrections of FE , Authentic corrections of FC |

In GE cautionary sharps were added to the top notes of the dominant chords in bars 35, 37, 41, 43, 45, 49 and 51. There is a similar situation in subsequent, analogous bars. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions |

In FC the slur at the end of bar 36 (which ends the line) may suggest that it should be continued, which, however, is not confirmed by the slur in bar 37. We consider the unequivocal beginning of the slur in bar 37 to be reliable. Due to this ambiguity, and also due to the earlier decision concerning the slurring in bars 32-33, in the main text we continue the FE slur. In analogous bars 44-45 all sources feature a continuous slur. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources |
