No slur in A

4-quaver slur in GE1 (→FEEE)

3-quaver slur in GE2

..

The absence of the last of the three-quaver slurs in the L.H. is almost certainly Chopin's oversight. The slur was added in GE1 (→FEEE), by embracing the entire 2nd half of the bar with it. According to us, the addition can come from Chopin; however, it was most probably misinterpreted by the engraver. In GE2 the slur was shortened after previous figures, which we give in the main text as probably corresponding to Chopin's intention.

b. 326-327

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt I

Slur in A, literal reading

Slur in A (contextual interpretation→GEFEEE)

..

When interpreted literally, the slur of A does not exceed bar 326. However, its shape suggests leading it to the beginning of bar 327, which is confirmed by the corrected – most probably by Chopin – slur of GE (→FEEE).

b. 328

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt I

..

In A there is no  lowering g2 to gbefore the 8th semiquaver. Chopin's patent oversight was corrected already in GE1. In such a situation, a  should be added before g3, appearing three semiquavers later at the same pitch, which was not done until in FE (→EE) and GE2.

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt I

No L.H. slur in A

Slur over L.H. part in GE1 (→FEEE)

Longer slur under L.H. part in GE2

..

The slur over the final section of the passage in the L.H. written on the bottom stave is most probably an addition of the revision of GE1 (→FEEE). In turn, moving the beginning of this slur to bar 327, introduced in GE2, is undoubtedly a revision.
