b. 425

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I

Slur in FE (→GE)

2 slurs in EE
..

Chopin would sometimes use the notation with double slurs, e.g. in the Concerto in F minor, op. 21, 3rd mov., bars 472-480, yet in this case, the addition of the top slur must be a revision of EE.

..

In FE (→EE), the  before the last semiquaver was overlooked, which was corrected in GE. Moreover, instead of a  before the 8th semiquaver (c​​​​​​​2) the majority of the sources (except for GE3) feature a respective mark on the 5th semiquaver. It is related to the use of an octave sign to write the 1st beat of the bar.

Slur from semiquavers in FE (→EE) & GE3

Slur from quaver in GE1 (→GE2)
..

An earlier beginning of the slur in GE1 (→GE2) must be an inaccuracy of the engraver who could have misinterpreted the "encompassing" slur of FE. A slur compliant with both piano and musical logic was restored in GE3.
