2 slurs in EE |
In the main text we give the slur of A, interpreted in a way not contrary to the notation and compliant with the natural phrasing resulting from the instrumentation. A similar solution was adopted in GE2, taking into account the literal interpretation of the slur. The authenticity of the remaining versions seems to be questionable; it is only in the case of GE1 that one can assume a misunderstanding at the time of performing Chopin's possible proofreading – hence suggestions of alternative solutions.
