Slurs

b. 52-62

composition: Op. 10 No 12, Etude in C minor

Slurs in A

Slurs in FE & GE

In bar 52 and analogous bars 55, 56, 60 and 62 Chopin provided the part of the R.H. only with the slurs embracing particular triplets, independently from articulation and phrasing. Due to the fact that while proofreading FE, Chopin replaced these slurs with phrase marks in a few places (bars 52, 56 and 60), we assume that the described corrections intentionally refer to all similar fragments and that lack of relevant changes in the remaining bars is a result of an inaccurately implemented proofreading. However, it is possible that it was Chopin that wanted to limit himself to the essential minimum of the changes in the text reproduced by the engraver in accordance with the Stichvorlage. Cf. General Editorial Principlesp. 16.

b. 53

composition: Op. 10 No 12, Etude in C minor

No slur in A (→FEGE)

Slur in EE

..

The accidental nature of the slur's oversight in A (→FEGE) is undeniable. We add the slur after EE.

b. 63

composition: Op. 10 No 12, Etude in C minor

Slur in A, EE & GE2 (→GE3GE4)

No slur in FE (→GE1)

..

Lack of the slur in FE (→GE1) is certainly a mistake. The slur was added in EE and subsequent GE,s.

composition: Op. 10 No 12, Etude in C minor

Slur in A

No slur in FE (→GE)

Slur in EE

..

Lack of the slur in FE (→GE) is certainly a mistake. The half-bar-long slur, added here in EE, can also be an error.

b. 69-72

composition: Op. 10 No 12, Etude in C minor

..

We give the slurring of the figures in the L.H. in a standardised version, despite the fact that some of the slurs are written slightly inaccurately.
