Slurs in EE and FE

GC

Slurs in both hands in GE

In this part also - the last one of its kind in the passage of Scherzo - the beginning of slurs in GC raises doubts when it comes to intrerpreting Chopin's intentions. Already in GE, based on GC, the GC were never rewritten here in accordance with the noatation (while slurs for LH were added). In EE and FE the slurs always begin on quaver figurations (except for the obviously wrongly missing slur in EE in b. 521). In GC the endings of the discussed slurs are notated inaccurately: in bars 501, 509 and 517 the slurs end over the pause on the second beat of the bar.
