The slur of A is written vehemently both on the right-hand side, where no ambiguities concerning its range arise, and on the left-hand side, where one could have doubts whether it should start from the 1st or 2nd quaver of the 2nd half of the bar. A comparison of slurs of A in similar situations clearly proves that at the time of writing A Chopin's intention was a slur from the 2nd quaver. This is how it was interpreted in GE2. The interpretation of GE1 (→FE→EE) may be considered justified, yet it is most probably erroneous.

The inaccurate, too long slur of GE1 was misinterpreted in FE as clearly reaching the c2 quaver. The mistake was not repeated either in EE or in GE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions |

According to us, the use of the semiquaver beam in the editions is a result of inaccuracy of the engraver of GE1. In A similar groups are written as quavers in all three analogous bars (bars 14, 33 and 82) and it does not seem that Chopin would have preferred to change this notation. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions |

Both versions of the slur, appearing in the editions, are almost certainly inauthentic. The version of GE1 (→FE) is most probably simply inaccurate, similarly the version of EE. In turn, in GE2 it is probably an attempt to reinterpret the notation of A while taking into account the Chopin notation of analogous bars 14 and 82. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies |

Although the beginning of the slur in A from the 2nd quaver remains beyond any doubt, in GE1 (→FE→EE) it was erroneously reproduced as a whole-bar slur. The notation compatible with A was restored in GE2. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions |
