Slur from c3 in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

Slur from a3 in GE3

The slur of FE (→EE,GE1GE2) is clearly inaccurate – it begins in the place where the octave sign ends in these editions. The slur in the autograph most probably encompassed the entire irregular group of semiquavers – Chopin would write this kind of slurs routinely, to a certain extent (cf. e.g. the Concerto in F minor, op. 21, the 2nd mov., bars 26, 28, 30, 31). Therefore, in the main text we suggest such a slur, introduced also in GE3.
