Determining Chopin's intention concerning the slurring of bar 8 (together with adjacent chords) encounters difficulties. The composer's idea can be represented both in the source versions and in our suggestions, considering a possible oversight of the engraver of FE. It is the versions of GC (the main text) and two versions based on the reconstructed on the basis of the reprise slur of FE that we consider to be most reliable, as far as the sources are concerned, and pianistically natural. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Errors in FE , Authentic corrections of EE |

No slur in FE1 is undoubtedly an oversight of the engraver, corrected – certainly on the basis of [A] – in FE2. However, it is not entirely clear what the range of the slur intended by Chopin was, as the sources based on [A] seem to convey different versions and both the copyist and the engraver of FE did not always faithfully reproduce Chopin's notation. In addition, the slur of GC, despite the fact that it clearly reaches the beginning of bar 21, cannot be considered to be unambiguous – the beginning of the slur also exceeds the bar line, which cannot mean its starting in bar 16. It is the recapitulation that comes to help (bars 205-209), in which the engraver of FE1, looking at the same place of [A], interpreted the slur differently than for the first time, yet in accordance with the more likely, literal interpretation of GC. Due to this fact, in the main text we give the slur reaching until E category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , FE revisions , Inaccuracies in GC |

The absence of the first slur in FE (→EE1) is most probably an oversight of the engraver of FE. It was completed in EE2, probably on the basis of comparison with GE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE |
