In #KG, the tie sustaining a flat is only present in bar 155 (in a new line). This was probably the reason why GE1 did not have it at all. The error was corrected in GE2. category imprint: Source & stylistic information issues: Errors in GE , Inaccuracies in GC |

As is the case with the slur, the earlier beginning of the hairpin mark in GC (→GE) is probably an inaccuracy of notation. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GC |

The earlier beginning of the slur in EE and GC (→GE) seems inaccurate, as the choral phrases of that part of the Scherzo always begin in the 2nd bar of a four-bar section, in this case in bar 156. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GC |

In GC, the beginnings of slurs in bars 159, 167, 175 and 183 are clearly placed above the 1st beat of the bar. Such notation may have been intended by Chopin in order to underline the four-bar resounding of the chords ending each one of the choral phrases. However, another possibility is that the notation is simply inaccurate here - there are many places in GC with imprecisely written slurs (and this is how the matter was generally interpreted in GE). As the main text we give the slurring of EE and FE, free of errors or doubts, where the slurs begin on the 2nd beat together with quaver figurations. The issue occurs in other similar fragments that begin in bars 203, 291, 307, 453, 497. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Inaccuracies in GC |

Lack of pedal marking in GE1 is an obvious error. GE2 has under the octave in bar 159, which is also obviously wrong. In the editors' opinion, also the premature release of the pedal in EE and GC is erroneous – in other similar situations the pedal remains depressed for at least 4 bars. Our proposal corresponds to the placement of the mark that is most often seen in analogous places. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Inaccuracies in GC |
