b. 249-250

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Slur to f in A

No slur in FC

Slur to d1 in FE (→EE) & GE

..

When interpreted literally, the slur of A encompasses only the quavers. A comparison with the analogous figures proves Chopin's inaccuracy, corrected already in FE (→EE). The missing slur in FC must be an oversight of the copyist, corrected already in GE1 (→GE2GE3).

Accents &  in A

& accent in FC (→GE1)

Different accents in FE

Different R.H. & L.H. accents in EE

Short accents in GE2 (→GE3)

Long accents, our alternative suggestion

..

Despite significant differences in the length of the marks in b. 250, 252, 254 & 256 visible in A, we consider all of them to be accents. The mark in b. 250 in itself could be regarded as a long accent; however, in the context of two subsequent ones, we interpret it as a short accent. Due to the reasons discussed in analogous b. 118-124, in the main text we give a notation unified with four short accents; such a solution was also applied in GE2 (→GE3). The two missing marks in FC (→GE1) are most probably an oversight, while the changes introduced in EE, with differentiated accents for both hands and vertical accents, the latter being typical of that edition – a revision.

b. 257

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

D1 in sources

D suggested by the editors

..

In the main text we suggest the D note introduced by Chopin in the proofreading of FE in analogous b. 125, since Chopin's intentional differentiation between those bars seems to be less likely than an oversight of the correction in b. 257.

b. 262

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

There is no octave sign over the R.H. minim in A (→FEEE1). The patent mistake (particularly after comparing it with b. 130) was corrected in FC (→GE), probably by Fontana's hand, as well as in EE2 (→EE3).

b. 263-264

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

 end of bar 264 in A (→FE,FCGE)

 beginning of bar 263 in EE

..

The  asterisk was shifted in EE, probably under the influence of analogous b. 130-132.
