Extending a slur to the end of a bar is a characteristic inaccuracy of GE1 (→FE→EE), corrected in GE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions |

In the main text we give the slur of A, marking the range of the phrase, with a characteristic ending indicating a necessity of an accurate hold of the last long note (slur-tenuto). Two whole-bar slurs of GE (→FE, repeated inaccurately in EE) deprived the Chopin slurring of all nuances. GE2 generally restored the Chopin slur (without the extended "tenuto" ending). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies , Tenuto slurs |

Same as in the previous bars, dividing the slur of A into two parts was an arbitrary decision of GE (→FE→EE). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Tenuto slurs |

Even in such a seemingly obvious situation, the engraver of GE1 separated the slurs in the middle of the bar, contrary to A and the musical sense. The extension of the first slur in FE (→EE), although it returns the range of the slur written in A, is probably another inaccuracy. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |

The range and placement of the slur in A are unclear. According to us, it may refer to the quavers in the top voice, as it was interpreted in the editions (except for EE1, in which the slur was overlooked) but also to the crotchet of the bottom voice, leading to the b category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A |
