Issues : Inaccurate slurs in A
b. 25-26

In A (→FE) there are no wedges in the L.H. in the 2nd half of bar 25 and in bar 26 (as well as in bar 38). This patent inaccuracy was completed in FC (→GE) and EE. In turn, FE overlooked two signs more, on the 3rd and 4th quaver in bar 25. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , Inaccurate slurs in A |

When interpreted literally, the slurs of A do not include the a2 crotchet, which resulted in an erroneous, as it seems, interpretation in FE. In the main text we give the undoubtedly correct slurs of FC (→GE) and EE. After all, it is highly likely that the slur in bars 47-48 in FC was extended by Chopin. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A |

The main doubt concerns here the phrase adherence of the a1 minim in bar 56 – in A the slur begins from it (after bar 54), while in FC it is clearly added to the previous phrase. According to us, Fontana omitted the slur in bar 56, perhaps believing that there is no need to double the tie and Chopin, at the time of checking FC, extended the previous slur. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions; Corrections & alterations issues: Inaccurate slurs in A , GE revisions |
