No marking in remaining sources

..

The  indication is only in A. According to us, it is highly unlikely that Chopin resigned from it, while proofreading FE  (→GE,EE).

4 slurs in AI, literal reading

4 slurs in AI, contextual interpretation

No slurs in AII

3 slurs in AIII

2 slurs in A

Slur from bar 64 in FE (→EEC,EEW1,GE1op,GE1Db)

2 slurs in GE2op (→#GE3op)

1 slur in GE2Db (→GE3DbGE4Db) & EEW2

..

In the main text we give the slurs of A. The versions of the presentation autographs may be considered to be alternative or only precising the suggestions of the nuanced leading of the phrase and of accentuation (except for the clearly unfinished notation of AII). The contextual interpretation of the first slur in AI allows to assume the slurring of GE2op (→#GE3op) to be also admissible. The versions of the remaining editions are either erroneous or completely arbitrary.

 in this bar is a result of a mistake of the engraver of FE, corrected only in the last phase of proofreading. The erroneous sign, repeated in GE1op and GE1Db, was removed in subsequent editions, yet only in the version with single Waltzes. The range of the  hairpin – see the previous note.

The missing  is most probably an oversight of the engraver of FE (→GE,EE). The sign is also absent in the previous autographs, written in the dal Segno convention.

Omission of  in both versions of GE, including the subsequent corrected editions and impressions, indicates an oversight of this indication in the proof copy of FE, being the base text for GE. In the finished FE the sign was completed in the last phase of proofreading. Cf. bars 87-92.
