b. 63

composition: Op. 10 No 3, Etude in E major

Slur in AI & EE3 (→EE4)

Two slurs in A

No slurs in FE (→GE,EE2)
..

In the main text we give two slurs written in A and overlooked – together with the accent – in FE (→GE,EE2).In EE3 (→EE4), certainly by analogy with bar 2 and 10, one slur was added.
(The version of AI is repeated from bar 10).

composition: Op. 10 No 3, Etude in E major

Accents in AI

Accent in A

No marks in FE (→GE,EE2)

  & accent in EE3 (→EE4)
..

In the main text, we give the long accent in bar 63, written in A and overlooked – together with slurs – in FE (→GE,EE2). In EE3 (→EE4),   hairpins were added in this bar, by analogy with bar 10; at the same time, the accent on the e1-g1 third was considered. (The accents in both bars in AI are repeated from bars 10-11).

AI lacks the first slur (in bar 11).

b. 64

composition: Op. 10 No 3, Etude in E major

No mark in AI & FE (→GE,EE)

Long accent in A
..

Lack of the accent in FE (→GE,EE) is most probably a result of an oversight.

b. 64

composition: Op. 10 No 3, Etude in E major

No slur in AI & A (→FE→GE1,EE2)

Slur in GE1a (→GE2→GE3→GE4→GE5) & EE3 (→EE4)
..

The attempt to complete the indications over the 2nd half of the bar may be considered as justified in a situation where the only authentic indication – a long accent – was overlooked in FE (→GE,EE).
