b. 380-382

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In the main text we add cautionary naturals before a in b. 380 and 382 and a  before g in b. 381. The first natural was added also in GE, the second – in GE2 (→GE3).

b. 382-383

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Shorter slur in FE (→EE)

..

The interpretation of the phrase mark of A by FE (→EE) must be considered inaccurate: the phrase mark of the manuscript is pulled to the beginning of b. 383, while the bold ending of the slur proves a careful, diligent stroke of the pen.

Slur in A (→FCGE)

No slur in FE (→EE)

..

The missing slur for the L.H. is most probably an oversight of the engraver of FE. After all, it cannot be excluded that, looking at A, he regarded the L.H. slur as the beginning of the R.H. slur, which can be indicated by the original range of the R.H. slur in FE.

Small notes in A (→FCGE)

Regular font in FE (→EE)

..

Notation with normal font notes is a result of a misunderstanding of A by the engraver of FE (→EE).

Slur from 1st note in A (probable interpretation→FEEE) & GE

Slur from 2nd note in A (possible interpretation→FC)

..

In A it is unclear whether the phrase mark is to begin from the 1st or the 2nd note of the bar, which was reflected in the differing versions of FC and FE (→EE). At the same time, in FE there are visible traces of shortening the phrase mark, which initially reached b1 in the previous bar. The version of GE is probably a 'standard inaccuracy' resulting from a tendency to adjust phrase marks (and dynamic hairpins) to regular rhythmic structures, e.g. bars, which is documented in a number of Chopin's pieces.
