b. 561-566

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No slurs in A (→FE,FCGE)

Slurs in EE

..

The slurs of EE added in b. 561-562 and 565-566 are contrary to Chopin's intention. It is proven by the same type of slurs having been crossed out in A in the first of those places. According to us, it is even uncertain whether the slurs were an actual original concept of articulation of those motifs, since Chopin could have erroneously marked one similar place too many while adding slurs on that page of A.

b. 562-564

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No signs in A (→FCGE, →FEEE)

Arpeggio signs in GE2 (→GE3)

Signs in brackets, our variant suggestion

..

The presence of arpeggios both in b. 560 and 566 makes us consider their absence in b. 562 and 564 to be Chopin's oversight. Therefore, in the main text we suggest adding the signs. The arpeggios were added in GE2 (→GE3).

b. 566

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Arpeggio signs in A (→FCGE)

No signs in FE (→EE)

..

The missing arpeggio signs are most probably a mistake of the engraver of FE, who could have confused the bar with one of the previous ones, similar b. 562 or 564.

b. 568

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Arpeggio sign in A (→FC) & GE2 (→GE3)

No sign in FE (→EE) & GE1

..

The missing arpeggio must be a result of the engravers' inattention, particularly in FE, in which the last arpeggios in this section were printed in b. 560. The mark was added in GE2 (→GE3). See also the note below and in b. 570-572.

b. 568-572

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No signs in A (→FCGE1, →FEEE)

3 arpeggio signs in GE2 (→GE3)

1 arpeggio sign, our alternative suggestion

..

According to us, the missing L.H. arpeggios in b. 568, 570 and 572 are not an accident, hence in the main text we preserve this version. However, since Chopin would sometimes overlook signs in this entire section (cf., e.g. b. 557 as well as 562 and 564), we suggest an arpeggio in b. 568 as an alternative version. The version of GE2 (→GE3) with arpeggios in all the discussed bars may be applied only in accordance with the R.H. arpeggios.
