It is difficult to qualify the replacement of three two-note slurs of A with a whole-bar slur in GE1 as a mistake or a result of a routine approach of the engraver. It also does not seem to be a proofreading, understood as a change of the slurring of A. According to us, the following hypothesis is likely – the engraver initially printed the bar without any slurs (he also overlooked all staccato dots), which was perhaps corrected by Chopin, by adding one slur. In the main text we give the slurs of A, whose authenticity is unquestionable. They were also introduced in GE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Authentic corrections of GE |

In GE1 (→FE) there is none of the three staccato dots written in A (under both bass notes and over the top most note in the R.H.), which is undoubtedly a mistake. EE added the signs in the L.H. (also in the next bar), most probably on the basis of comparison with the corresponding bar of the exposition. GE2 reproduced the notation of A. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in GE , GE revisions |

In A it is unclear whether the end of the slur from bar 290 is written just with aplomb or whether it is supposed to reach the 1st semiquaver in bar 291. In the main text we assume the latter; in turn, not only was the slur ended on the last semiquaver in bar 290 in the editions, but also a next one was started from the 1st note in bar 291, clearly contrary to the notation of A. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccurate slurs in A |

One can see a Chopin proofreading in the well-sounding version of GE (→FE→EE). However, an oversight of the engraver of GE1 also cannot be excluded; the engraver could have been influenced by the notation of the previous bar, including this type of coincidence of the voices at the beginning of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th group of semiquavers. Due to this reason, in the main text we give the version of A. However, the version of the editions, perhaps the latest authentic one, must be considered an equal variant. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , Authentic corrections of GE |
