Slurs

b. 467

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III
..
Due to the crossings-out, the discussed bar is written in A on an adjacent stave, which creates doubts concerning the slur with which it is embraced, i.e. whether it is to be a continuation of the previous slur or not (a similar doubt concerns also the link with the next slur). GE (→FE→EE) started a new slur in this place, whereas the proposal in the main text corresponds to the authentic slurring in analogous bars 426-427. category imprint: Editorial revisions |

..
The continuous slur suggested in the main text corresponds to the authentic slurring in analogous bars 427-428. In A (→GE→FE→EE), a new slur begins in bar 468, however, due to crossings-out in bar 467, the notation may be inaccurate – see the note at the beginning of the bar. category imprint: Editorial revisions |

Although Chopin returned to double slurs in the bass (cf. bars 430-433) in the next bars, in the main text we preserve single slurs in this place, since the difference seems to be intentional, however, it is not easy to indicate what performance detail could be related to this difference in notation. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions |

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III
..
The slur over bar 470 is combined with the previous slur in A. GE1 reproduced it inaccurately – the ending of the slur in bar 469 suggests continuation, yet in bar 470, opening a new line, the slur runs only from the 1st quaver. Both FE (→EE) and GE2 interpreted it as separate slurs. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE |

The issue whether the slurs at the transition between bars 472 and 473 and 474 and 475 are to be divided or combined is not clear in A, partially due to the corrections of both slurs and notes. A comparison with analogous figures in bars 476-480 suggests that the slurs having been reproduced by the editions as one-bar ones may correspond to Chopin's intention. However, the notation in bars 474-475 clearly suggests using a two-bar slur; such a possibility is not excluded by the notation of the two previous bars. Taking this into account, we suggest two interpretations of the discussed slurs. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Corrections in A , Errors resulting from corrections |
