No slurs in A (→FEGE,EE2)

Slurs in EE3 (→EE4)

Our suggestion

Chopin omitted the slurring in the R.H. in these bars. Due to the fact that the phrasing is marked both before and after this fragment, lack of slur could be misleading for the performer (or interpreted as the notation's inaccuracy). Considering the strict analogy to the previous phrase, we suggest to add the slur also in the L.H. The slurs were added in EE3 (→EE4) in the part of the R.H. in a way contrary to the authentic phrasing in bars 25-26.
