Same as in bar 32, the interpretation of the long accent on the 3rd quaver as a diminuendo filling the 1st crotchet in the bar is a result of a total misunderstanding of Chopin's notation by the engraver of GE1 (→FE→EE, →GE2). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE |

The slur appearing in the editions, compliant with the slur in the parts of all bass instruments in Morch, may be safely considered to be added by Chopin in the proofreading of GE1. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of GE |

When interpreted literally, the slur in A begins over the last crotchet; however, its shape may suggest an earlier beginning, so the version of the editions does not have to be considered to be erroneous. According to us, it cannot be excluded that Chopin's intention was to indicate with a slur the voice that introduces the melody of the 2nd theme, from its very entrance. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE |

An earlier ending of the slur from the previous bars – clearly contrary to the structure of the phrase – is certainly an inaccuracy of the engraver of GE1 (→FE→EE). The beginning of the next slur, in GE1 careless and unclear, was interpreted in FE (→EE) unambiguously, yet certainly erroneously. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions |

..
It is uncertain whether the earlier beginning of the slur in GE1 (→FE→EE) is a result of Chopin's proofreading (no traces of performed changes suggest that the slur of GE1 was not corrected at all). In spite of this, in the main text we give this version due to a possible Chopin proofreading of the ending of this slur in FE (see the next note), which has to be considered an acceptance of its starting point. The undoubtedly authentic notation of A and GE2 may be regarded as an equal variant. In three out of four appearances of a similar phrase in the solo part (bars 127, 135 and 283), the entire bar is embraced with one slur beginning in the previous bar and ending in the next one, which, according to us, is an argument for adopting a slurring without gaps in the discussed place. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Authentic corrections of GE |
