Slurs in EE

Our suggestion

In A lack of the slurs over the motifs in the R.H. in bars 10-11 and 12-13 probably means that the slur over the second motif was added by Chopin in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE). Lack of a similar addition over the first motif could be explained with the transition to a new page, which in FE falls exactly between bars 10 and 11, yet in a similar situation in analogous bars 20-23 the slur over the first motif was also omitted. In spite of this, in both places we consider the lack of the slur as an inaccuracy of notation and we suggest suitable additions in the main text. The slur in bars 10-11 was already added in EE.
