Slurs in A, probable interpretation

Slurs in FE (→EE)

Slurs in GE1

Slurs in GE2 (→GE3GE4)

Contextual interpretation of A suggested by the editors

In bars 41-44, similarly as in bar 40, the slurs in A are written in a very imprecise manner. One can see in these bars corrections and deletions, which also intensifies the difficulties at the time of interpreting the composer's intention. In the main text we give a probable interpretation of A taking account of Chopin's correction in FE in bars.43-44 and analogous bars. As variants, we give interpretations of engravers or revisers of FE (→EE), GE1 and GE2 (→GE3GE4).
