b. 412-435

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

7 longer, 5 shorter slurs in A

2 longer, 10 shorter slurs in FC

9 longer, 3 shorter slurs in FE

12 shorter slurs in GE

8 longer, 3 shorter slurs in EE

12 longer slurs suggested by the editors

In A the slurs over the motifs of the bottom voice encompass the quavers only or reach the minim in the next bar. However, the differences are almost certainly of an accidental nature, hence in the main text we unify them, assuming 6-note slurs to be more frequent in A (7 longer, 2 shorter and 3 questionable). Accidental inaccuracies are also present in the remaining sources, except for GE, in which all slurs encompass 5 notes. The majority of the doubts concerning the range of the slurs is due to the ending lines: a slur suggesting continuation is not finished in a new line (b. 418-419 in A and FC, 432-433 in A, 412-413, 420-421 and 428-429 in FE and b. 422-423 in EE). In such situations we give shorter slurs in our transcriptions, just like in b. 426-427 in A and 412-413 in 428-429 in FC, which may be thought to be dubious. EE omitted the slur in b. 420-421. Neither FC nor FE, EE and GE reproduced the notation of the Stichvorlage correctly; however, the total number of inaccuracies in this section is smaller than the first time (b. 310-333).

The accents written in A in b. 413, 415 and analog. mean almost certainly the same despite differences, generally minor ones, in length and shape. The majority of the marks is rather short; however, four (b. 417, 425, 433 and 435) are definitely long, which makes us provide the main text with long accents only. At the same time, we add the accents Chopin overlooked in b. 419 and 431. We consider the version of GE2 (→GE3) with a complete set of short accents to be an alternative solution.
The mark in b. 435 was overlooked in FE (→EE), whereas the mark in b. 419 was added in EE

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

GE1 has erroneously e1 as the last crotchet in b. 424. The mistake was corrected in GE2 (→GE3) by replacing it with a tied c1.
