b. 706

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor
..
In the main text we give the version of the principal source, i.e. FC (→GE). Although the naturals visible in the copy were almost certainly written by Fontana, the fact that Chopin carefully revised the entire copy allows us to assume that the composer accepted that addition. The version is also supported by a more natural development of the melodic line: in final progressions Chopin uses a rhythmic cell consisting of 3 repeated notes, which in b. 705 awakens expectations of continuation with the use of a chord featuring g2-g3. EE2 (→EE3) arbitrarily added cautionary flats before the discussed notes. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors of A , Fontana's revisions |

b. 722-723
|
composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor
..
The slur of A is most probably unfinished due to ink flow problems; however, it is unclear where it should end. Two possibilities are involved: the beginning of b. 723, which is supported by the slurs in the analogous situations in b. 718-719, 758-759 and 762-763, or the end of b. 722, as it was interpreted by the copyist and which is indicated by the bend of the right-hand ending of the slur (or its visible, written part). In the main text we adopt the former, yet we consider the latter to be equivalent. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A , FE revisions , Fontana's revisions |
