It seems that Chopin changed the concept of dynamic markings in this and the next phrase – in A one can see in this bar a pair of signs, out of which the first was then deleted. While writing analogous bar 40, the composer put there only the sign of a long accent over the chord in the middle of the bar. According to us, it means that the slightly longer sign in bar 38 should be interpreted in this way. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Long accents , Errors in EE , Corrections in A , Deletions in A |

EE overlooks all slurs in this four-bar section, in both the R.H. and L.H. parts. In GC there are no slurs in the L.H. part in bars 47-49, which is probably a result of an oversight too. In GE the version of GC was completed with a slur in bar 48, probably after bar 50. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in EE , GE revisions , Errors of GC |

The separate R.H. slurs in these bars result most likely from a misunderstanding of the notation in A by the engraver of FE. Bar 52 starts a new line in A, and the beginning of slur clearly indicates a continuation. However, the slur in bar 51 extends only slightly beyond the bar line what might have mislead the engraver. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , Errors in EE , Inaccurate slurs in A , Uncertain slur continuation |
