Issues : Inaccuracies in GC
b. 92-94

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major
..
The ending of slur in bar 94 is unclear in A – Chopin probably meant a "tenuto slur" as in the first half of bar 92. However, it cannot be ruled out that it is the shorter slur in FE and EE which correctly conveys Chopin's intention. The earlier beginning of slur in GC (→GE) is certainly a result of copyist's inattentiveness. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies , Inaccuracies in GC |

The slurring in A in bars 95-97, similarly as in the previous bars, was misrepresented by the copyist and engravers – in GC and EE the slur from bar 95 does not reach bar 96, and in FE the overlapping slurs were interpreted as one slur. In GE the ending of a tenuto slur in bar 97 was misinterpreted by extending it towards the first chord in bar 98. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A , EE inaccuracies , FE revisions , Inaccuracies in GC |

Bar 99 is the last bar on page what caused errors in the notation of slurs in both manuscripts. A lacks the ending of slur in bar 100 although the end of the slur in bar 99 clearly indicates it should continue, and GC (→GE) lacks the slur beginning in bar 98 completely. In EE, the notation of A was recreated quite faithfully by leadng the slur up to the first note in bar 100. The continuous slur in FE is almost certainly the engraver's invention – Chopin did not proofread FE1. However, it seems possible that Chopin accepted the mergence of slurs both here, and in the subsequent bars. In the main text we keep the separate slurs of A, complementing the first with the omitted fragment at the beginning of bar 100.

In GC (→GE), as a result of an inaccuracy at the time of copying, falls on the first note in the bar. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GC |

GC overlooks the extending dots next to c1-e1 crotchets on the 2nd beat in the R.H. GE corrected this oversight. category imprint: Interpretations within context issues: Inaccuracies in GC |
