Slur in PE

Our suggestion

The slurs of EF are almost certainly a result of additions made by Fontana. In the most probably authentic slur of PE it is its ending that raises some doubts. According to us, it is very likely that the notation in this place is inaccurate, while Chopin's intention was to underline the lack of rests in the entire part of this phrase with the legato articulation. Therefore, to the main text we adopt the slur of PE, accordingly modified in this detail.
