R.H. slur from 2nd beat in A

R.H. slur from 3rd beat in GE1 (→FE)

Slurs from 2nd beat in EE & GE2

The slur of GE1 (→FE) is clearly erroneous (put one crotchet too far), which was corrected by the revisers of EE and GE2. In both editions a slur for the L.H. was added, which we consider a correct decision, justified by the authentic slurs in the ending of this movement and by a possible Chopin proofreading of GE1 in bars 1-2.
