b. 5-6

composition: Op. 64 No 2, Waltz in C♯ minor

 in A & GE3op

No sign in FE (→EEC,EEW1,GE1no2,GE1opGE2op)

Shorter  in GE2no2 & EEW2

..

The absence of the  hairpin is certainly an oversight of the engraver of FE. The sign was added in GE3op and – in a shortened form – in GE2no2 and EEW2.

b. 9

composition: Op. 64 No 2, Waltz in C♯ minor

 in A

No sign in FE (→GE,EE)

..

The absence of the  sign is most probably a mistake of the engraver of FE (→GE,EE), perhaps related to difficulties with placing a sign with the range written by Chopin in a legible manner. Similarly in bar 137.

b. 10-11

composition: Op. 64 No 2, Waltz in C♯ minor

No slur in As, AI & FE (→EE,GE1op,GE1no2)

Slur from 2nd quaver in A

Slur from 1st quaver in GE2op (→GE3op) & GE2no2

..

The absence of slurs both in AI and in FE (→EE,GE1op,GE1no2) certainly does not express Chopin's intentions – in the manuscript the slurs were overlooked until bar 16, whereas FE lacks in them also in bar 12. In FE it is bars 138-139 that prove the accidental oversight, in which a slur compatible with A was most probably added by Chopin in the last stage of proofreading. The phrasing mark is also absent in As, in which, however, Chopin wrote two motivic slurs.
The slurs added in later GE, embracing two entire bars, are a result of revision and they were probably modelled on the authentic slurs in bars 26-29. See also the note on slurs in bars 12-13

b. 12-13

composition: Op. 64 No 2, Waltz in C♯ minor

No slur in AI

Slur from bar 12 in A (contextual interpretation)

Slur from bar 13 in FE (→EE,GE1op,GE1no2)

Slur from beginning of bar 12 in GE2op (→GE3op) & GE2no2

..

On the available photocopy of A, the slur in bar 12 starts from the 3rd quaver. We shift the beginning one quaver earlier, analogously to bar 10. In FE (→EE,GE1op,GE1no2) the slur starts – undoubtedly erroneously – only in bar 13, however in bar 140, based on the notation of bar 12 in A, the slur of FE begins exactly on the 2nd quaver of the bar, which supports the solution we adopted. In later GE, the starting point of the slur was moved to the beginning of bar 12, most probably by analogy to the notation of bars 140-141 in GE.

composition: Op. 64 No 2, Waltz in C♯ minor

Pedalling in A & GE2no2

No pedalling in FE (→EE,GE1no2,GE1opGE2opGE3op)

..

No pedalling in the editions – the indications were added only in GE2no2 – is almost certainly a mistake of the engraver of FE. Similarly in bar 30.
