Omitted dashes determining the range of a given indication (e.g. a dynamic one) are a frequent inaccuracy of the first Chopinesque editions. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE |

The slurs of FE (→EE), longer than in the vast majority of the remaining similar figures, are most probably inaccurate. Shortening the first of them in GE1 (→GE2) also seems to be an inaccuracy – the reviser would have certainly shortened both slurs, like it was performed in GE3. We introduce the latter also in the main text. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions |

In FE, the second slur in each of these bars runs from d1 to e1. This inaccuracy almost certainly results from lack of space – due to cramping seven great staves on a page, the space between staves in FE is very small. In GE1 (→GE2), the slur in bar 546 was left unchanged, whereas the one in bar 547 was moved to above the notes; like in the case of the first slur in these bars, the nature of the change (inaccuracy or revision, or perhaps an inaccurate revision) is uncertain. In EE and GE3, the slurs were placed higher, which we include also in the main text. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies |

The additional dot in GE seems to be a routine addition of the engraver, convinced of the mark having been overlooked in FE. On the other hand, such an oversight cannot be excluded. In the main text, we stick to the version of the principal source – FE, which is also supported by the fact that the articulation of the final demisemiquaver results from the rhythmic context and does not require specification. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE |

The visibly incomplete slurring of GE1 (→GE2) probably reflects one of the original versions of the slurs in FE, changed then in the last phase of proofreading. The slur added in GE3 constitutes a natural addition, in particular in the face of the authentic slurring of six previous bars. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |
