Slurs in A

FE (→GE1), interpretation

EE

GE2 (→GE3GE4)

Our suggestion

The slurs of A in these bars are inaccurate, which was only partially corrected in FE (→GE1). The ambiguity was eliminated in EE and – in a different way – in subsequent GE,s, yet Chopin did not participate in their elaboration. Taking into account analogous bars 14-15, in which Chopin probably corrected the slur, and 38-39, in which he combined the slurs in A, in the main text we suggest a continuous slur from the 2nd quaver in bar 6 to the middle of bar 8.
