The first slur in the R.H. would reach in this bar to the very beginning of the next one, which was clearly crossed out by Chopin in A. The slurs of GE (→FE→EE), eventually compliant with the corrected slurs of A, were initially different – there was no division of the slur in bar 88 – which is indicated by visible traces of corrections. category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information |
