b. 43

composition: Op. 27 No 2, Nocturne in D♭ major

The beginning of the slur in A (contextual reading)

GE (→FEEE)

..

When read literally, the slur in A begins from the second semiquaver. However, it is almost sure that Chopin had in mind the same slur as the one in bar 42.

issues: Inaccurate slurs in A

b. 43

composition: Op. 27 No 2, Nocturne in D♭ major

..

In A (→GE1) there is no  lowering to C flat. This patent inaccuracy was corrected in FE (→EE) and GE2.

b. 43

composition: Op. 27 No 2, Nocturne in D♭ major

..

We remove the unnecessarily repeated double flat sign before the last but one semiquaver in the L.H.

b. 44

composition: Op. 27 No 2, Nocturne in D♭ major

2 wedges in A

Proposed addition to A

2 dots in GE

1 dot in FE (→EE)

..

The staccato wedges, quite clear in A, were interpreted as dots in  GE (→FEEE); what is more, FE (→EE) only has the first dot printed. We give both wedges of  A and suggest adding an analogous wedge over the last chord of the bar.

composition: Op. 27 No 2, Nocturne in D♭ major

..

In FE the crotchet g flat3 together with its grace note are moved to the left, so that the crotchet falls over the 2nd semiquaver of the left hand.
