In A one can see traces of changes in the way of combining bars 84-85 – initially bar 84 ended with a quaver and a rest, as in bar 76. Chopin then deleted the quaver flags and rests (in both hands) and extended the slur. The changes were introduced in the proofreading of FE1 – adding f and a and ties sustaining f and d1 to the chord at the beginning of bar 85 – is undoubtedly a continuation of the corrections described in A. We can observe similar corrections in A in bars 92-93.

composition: Op. 26 No 2, Polonaise in E♭ minor

Slur in A

No slur in FE (→GE,EE)

..

In A one can see a correction consisting in combining phrases in these bars, analogous to the one which in bars 84-85 Chopin introduced only in the proofreading of FE. The b-a slur, being one of the elements added in the new version, was, however, overlooked in the editions, which, according to us, was not intended by Chopin.
