Starting the slur from the beginning of the bar in GE1 (→FE→EE) is almost certainly an inaccuracy, characteristic for the engraver of this edition. GE2 restored the text compliant with the Chopin notation. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions |

Ending the slur before the last note of this passage in unison is certainly an inaccuracy. Both changes to which the slur of A was subject in GE1 are deformations typical of the engraver of this edition – dividing a long slur and adjusting it to metric structures. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions |

The staccato signs at the beginning of bars 146 and 148 are written in A inconsistently – in bar 146 the sign is only in the R.H., whereas in bar 148 – in both. The kind of the employed sign in bar 146 can also raise doubts, yet clear wedges in bar 148 speak in favour of a wedge. We add a fourth wedge (bar 146, L.H.) in the main text, since Chopin wrote staccato signs in similar situations in bars 150, 154 and 156 in the parts of both hands. No signs in bar 146 is certainly a mistake of GE1 (→FE→EE), whereas the interpretation of all employed signs as dots must be an inaccuracy of the editions. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Errors in GE , GE revisions , Wedges |

The missing slur in the R.H. is almost certainly an inaccuracy of A: in the entire fragment, Chopin marked articulation of all remaining notes. In GE1 slurs in parts of both hands were added, which could have been performed upon initiative of Chopin. However, the proofreading was implemented inaccurately, since the range of the added slurs differs, which could not correspond to the composer's intention (the slurs were unified both in FE (→EE) and GE2, although in each differently). There is also a possibility that Chopin added only the slur in the R.H. and the second one is an addition of revision – cf. bars 148 and 154. Therefore, in the main text we give only the slur in the R.H. – see bars 145-160. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of GE |

In GE1 only bar 155 was embraced with a slur; the version is either inaccurate or arbitrary. The correct range of the slur was restored in FE (→EE), probably at Chopin's request. GE2 also has the correct text. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |
