  b. 129-139

Slur in EE

Literal reading of GC (→GE1)

Markings in GC, contextual interpretation

Slur in FE

Markings in GE2

For our main text we adopt the version of GC. That version was also reproduced in GE, albeit inaccurately (the slur in bar 135) and it was additionally revised in GE2 (dots in the L.H. in bars 129-130). The notation of EE may also be considered a less accurate rendition of that version. The long slur of FE was added in print, probably at Chopin's request, and replaced a shorter one beginning from bar 134, which was definitely erroneous. That version should be therefore considered an alternative authentic approach to phrasing and articulation markings for that fragment.
