Issues : Inaccuracies in FE
b. 157-158
|
composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I
..
Taking into account the versions of FE and GC, one may assume that the slur of GC at the end of b. 157 could have been added by Chopin. The aim of that change was undoubtedly a slur encompassing the entire three-quaver motif (as it is 4 bars earlier), which was guessed in EE (the correction could have even been introduced by Chopin in the Stichvorlage for EE). GE reproduced the notation of GC literally, i.e. as coinciding slurs. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , Embracing slurs , EE inaccuracies , Authentic corrections in GC , Uncertain slur continuation |

In the main text we reproduce the little slur running from the grace note in the version of GC, in this case probably closest to [A]. The little slur can be, according to us, interpreted as a conventional sign, by playing the grace note and the fifth, or as a B1-B-f arpeggio. The notation of FE (→EE) is most probably inaccurate (cf. the adjacent note), whereas of GE – routinely revised; at the same time, both eliminate the possibility of a double interpretation. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |

..
A comparison with FE, which is also based on [A], suggests that the earlier division of the slur in GC (→GE) is erroneous. The copyist's momentary distraction is also supported by the misplaced hairpin, one bar too early (see the previous note). Irrespective of the position of the division of slur, we consider the interpretation of the sources that reproduced it as coinciding slurs to be inaccurate; in the main text we interpret the first slur as a tenuto-slur and end it still in b. 176. It corresponds to the notation of GC as well as to the slurs of FE in an analogous phrase 4 bars ago. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , Errors of GC |

..
In GC (→GE) and FE there is no raising f to f. The patent inaccuracy was corrected in EE, which, in spite of the fact that the base text to EE was corrected by Chopin, could have been performed by the reviser. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Accidentals in different octaves , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , Inaccuracies in GC |

b. 218
|
composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I
..
The notation of accidentals in the penultimate chord in the R.H. in bar 218 is inaccurate in the sources. The raising e2 to e2 is absent in all sources, whereas the raising g2 to g2 is present only in GE and EE. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions , Omission of current key accidentals , Inaccuracies in GC |
