Slur in AI

Slurs in A, interpretation

Slur in FE (→GE,EE)

The range and meaning of the slurs of A is not entirely clear. In the main text we give the graphically and musically unambiguous slur of FE (→GE,EE), which is probably a result of Chopin's proofreading. The short slur of AI is probably fragmented (cf. bars 2-4).
