b. 83

composition: Op. 26 No 1, Polonaise in C♯ minor

..

In FE (→GE1,EE1) the engraver overlooked the rest with fermata for the bottom voice of the R.H. The signs were added – most probably after comparison with bar 53 – in GE2 (→GE3→GE4→GE5) and EE2.

No tie in A

Tie in FE (→GE,EE)
..

A does not include a tie combining both a1 at the beginning of the bar. Chopin completed this deficiency in the proofreading of FE1, at the same time overlooking a respective correction in analogous bar 52.

A1 & A in FE (→GE,EE)
..

In A the first quaver in bar 84 is an A1, whereas in bar 85 - A. Chopin swapped them in the proofreading of FE1. The composer performed a similar correction also for bars 52 and 53.

b. 84-85

composition: Op. 26 No 1, Polonaise in C♯ minor

..

In FE (→GE1,EE) the engravers overlooked the staccato dots for the 1st quavers in the L.H. in bars 84 and 85. The revisers of GE2 added the overlooked signs, most probably after comparison with analogous bars 52 and 53. In GE3 (→GE4→GE5) the engraver overlooked only one dot – for the quaver in bar 84.

composition: Op. 26 No 1, Polonaise in C♯ minor

2 slurs in A

2 slurs in FE (→GE1,EE)

1 slur in GE2 (→GE3→GE4→GE5)
..

Differently than in analogous bars 52-53, the engraver of FE inserted here two slurs - the first in bar 84 and the second in bar 85. GE2 (→GE3→GE4→GE5) includes one phrasing slur for the last two bars, which is most probably a result of the reviser having compared the notation in analogous bars 52-53.
