  b. 90-91

2 slurs in A1, literal reading

Continuous slur in FE (→EE)

2 slurs in GE

In A1 both the ending of the L.H. slur in b. 90 and the starting point of the slur in b. 91 are probably inaccurate, which is indicated by a comparison with GE and analogous b. 94 and 99 in the very A1. The engraver of FE, misled by the slur in b. 90, combined both slurs in one, which does not result from the notation of A1 and certainly does not correspond to Chopin's intention. This erroneous version was repeated in EE.
