b. 756-760

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

2 staccato dots in A (→FEEE) & GE2

No marks in GE1

1 dot in GE3

..

The missing staccato dot in b. 756 in FC (→GE1) is most probably an oversight. It was also the dot in b. 760 that was overlooked in GE1, which, most probably, is also an oversight. By adding both dots, the reviser of GE2 correctly guessed Chopin's intention. In turn, the origin of the version of GE3 is puzzling, since there is no acceptable reason to remove the dot in b. 760. Consequently, it is either an erroneous revision or a misprint.

b. 757-769

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In the main text we add cautionary flats before the G-g octaves in b. 757, 761, 765, 767 and 769. The accidentals were added also in GE2 (→GE3).

b. 758-759

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Slur to bar 759 in A (→FCGE1)

Slur to end of bar 759 in FE (→EE)

Slur to end of bar 758 in GE2 (→GE3)

..

In the main text we give the unequivocal slurring of A (→FCGE1), confirmed by an identical notation in b. 762-763 as well as in b. 718-719. The fact of merging the slurs, which was performed in FE (→EE), is probably a result of mistaking the intersection of the slurs of A for their colligation. The separate slurs in GE2 (→GE3) are an arbitrary revision unifying the discussed slurs with the ones of FC (→GE) in b. 718-719 and 722-723. The same applies to b. 762-763.

b. 764-766

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In A there are visible corrections of the L.H. slurring: in b. 764 it was probably the slur over the 2nd and 3rd crotchets that was deleted, whereas the slur in b. 765-766 was shortened by deleting its ending, reaching the D-d octave.
