The interpretation of the slurring of A presents difficulties. The most important issue is the fact whether Chopin wanted to preserve double slurs or whether one of the versions (probably the long slur above the entire phrase) was supposed to replace the second one. The latter seems to be indicated by the absence of ending in bar 48 of two out of four slurs written at the end of bar 47 (corrections without erasing the eliminated version do happen in manuscripts, including in autographs, e.g. in the Etude in G major, Op. 10 No. 5, bar 83). In any case, this is how it was interpreted in GE1 (except for the slur in the L.H., which started inaccurately, too late) and then (after correcting this inaccuracy) in FE (→EE). GE2 included the double slurring of A. In all editions, the crotchets in bar 48 are embraced with separate slurs, which rather does not correspond to the notation of A (the engraver may have been influenced by adjacent bars). However, when considering the portato articulation and the accent, the difference is of no practical meaning. In the main text, we give an interpretation closest to the notation of A, with double slurs. The version of FE (→EE) may be considered a fully-fledged alternative interpretation. If in bar 45 the version with the harmonic accompaniment was chosen, one of the versions for the R.H. is to be selected. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccurate slurs in A , GE revisions , FE revisions |

The unquestionable long accent written in A was reproduced in GE as short and in FE (→EE1) it was overlooked. There seems to be no reason to attribute any of these changes to Chopin's intervention. In subsequent EE the accent was most probably added after GE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents , EE revisions , Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in GE |

In A (→GE→FE) there is no treble clef in bar 50 (we do not include the sign written in pencil with a foreign hand, probably later). In GE (→FE) the bass clef in bar 49 was also overlooked. The mistake was corrected in EE. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in GE , Errors of A , Errors repeated in GE , Errors repeated in FE |
