When interpreted literally, 3 consecutive slurs of A reach only the last quaver in the bar; moreover, the starting point of the slur in b. 9 is also not entirely clear (we assume that it is the 2nd quaver). Due to the reasons discussed in b. 1-2, we consider them to be inaccurate; in the main text we generally adopt the slurs of FE (→EE), compliant with the manner in which Chopin would correct in A some slurs in similar figures. In b. 9-10 the notation of the topmost L.H. notes on the top stave and writing them closer to the b1 minim opens an additional interpretation of the L.H. slur as reaching that minim. We include that possibility in the main text, regarding the version of FE (→EE) as an equal variant. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A , FE revisions , Inaccuracies in FC |

A late start of the slur is one of numerous slurring inaccuracies of Fontana in this Prelude – cf. the note to b. 2-4. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FC |

In A, the slur starting in bar 12, last in line, indicates a continuation, but its ending is absent from bar 13. We adopt a natural contextual interpretation in accord with the FE (→EE) version. In FC (→GE), the copyist overlooked this slur like the previous one. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A , Errors of FC , Uncertain slur continuation |
