Slur in A

Slurs in FE (→GE,EE)

Slur suggested by the editors

Chopin added a slur in bars 7-8 at the time of proofreading FE (→GE,EE). According to us, the proofreading's goal was to extend the slur from bar 6 and the applied solution is of a simplified nature – extending a slur required much more workload of the engraver, thus Chopin could have felt embarrassed to require such a change in a place which, actually, was printed in accordance with the base text. See the remark concerning extending the slur of A in bars 2-3. Cf. bars 14-15.
