b. 69-70
The ending of the slur in bar 70 cannot be considered as reliable in GC. As far as bars 68-69 are concerned, it is hard to state in which sources the slurring of [A] was interpreted correctly – in GC or in FE and EE. The arguments for a continuous slur are not only the number of sources, yet also the fact that possible corrections of the slurring could have had place only in the lost manuscripts, as they are not to be seen in GC. Due to these facts, in the main text we give the version of FE and EE, being conscious of the fact that the interpretation of slurs of GC adopted in GE3 (→#GE4) may also correspond to Chopin's intention.
