No L.H. slur in FE (→GE1GE2)

Slur to end of bar 121 in EE, contextual interpretation

Slur to bar 122 in GE3

The added slur in the L.H. is obviously musically justified. However, in the main text we keep the original notation, since Chopin used both notations in similar contexts – with a slur only over the R.H., valid by default also for the L.H., or with separate slurs for both hands. Both EE and GE3 added a slur corresponding to the slur in the R.H. – in EE to the end of bar 121, and in GE3 to e3. The slur in EE begins only just in bar 121 (on a new line); however, its beginning points to continuation from the previous bar.
