No slur in A (→FE→GE1,EE1)

Slur in GE2 (→GE3→GE4→GE5) & EE2

 

We suggest adding this characteristic for the polonaise cadenza slur in the L.H. It cannot be excluded that Chopin overlooked its completion in this place, as it is present in analogous bar 85 – most probably added by Chopin in the proofreading of FE1. The slur was added in GE2 (→GE3→GE4→GE5) and EE2, most probably as a result of comparison with aforementioned bar 85.
