Slurs in Amar

GC

FE (→EE)

GE

Our suggestion

The differences in the slurring in the sources based directly on [A] – GC and FE – do not let an unanimous reproduction of the version of the Stichvorlage autograph. The version suggested in the main text is one of the possible reconstructions of the notation of [A], including a cgrace note, added by Chopin in the proofreading of FE3 and in the base text to EE. The remaining versions of the sources, although they are most probably inaccurate, can be considered to be possible interpretations of this notation. The version of Amar is also worth paying attention to, undoubtedly authentic and natural, as far as the musical aspect is concerned.
