The slur in A was corrected, probably by Chopin, in GE. It is difficult to decide whether that signified a change in suggested performance of that detail or was simply a correction of the inaccurately written sign. category imprint: Differences between sources |

When read literally in A, the slurs in the indicated place and at the transition point between bar 16 and bar 17 do not reach the last notes in three-note motifs. This was recognized as an instance of inaccurate notation and correctly interpreted already in GE. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A |

Beginning the slur from the crotchet e flat2 in the middle of bar 22 is not precisely notated in A, but in this context it is doubtless. Nonetheless, in GE (→FE→EE) the slur begins from the next bar (which, due to sustained e flat2 , has no practical meaning anyway). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A |

The slur in A ends in the manner that allows for two interpretations: either the slur extends to the last note of bar 26 or to the a flat1 at the beginning of bar 27. The second interpretation, in our opinion being more likely, was adopted in GE. In the main text we give the slur in the version corrected by Chopin in FE (→EE). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations |
