In these bars the sources include naturals (cautionary?) before the D crotchets – GE before both, while FE (→EE) only in b. 247. We omit those accidentals in the main text. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions |

Separate L.H. slurs in b. 250-252 and 258-260 are an arbitrary revision of GE2. One reason for this might be the changes to the original layout performed in that edition, in particular moving the R.H. part fragments written down by Chopin on the bottom stave together with the L.H. part to the top stave. Due to the separation of the parts of both hands, it becomes less intuitive that the slur over the R.H. part applies to both hands (we do not reproduce the layout of GE2 in our transcriptions). category imprint: Differences between sources; Source & stylistic information issues: GE revisions |

In FE b. 260 opens a new line, in which the slur from the preceding bars is not continued, although its ending in b. 259 clearly indicates that it should be continued. It is difficult to say whether this inaccuracy was related to the fact that EE omitted the slur. In the main text we give the slur of GE, which is certainly correct. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , Errors in EE , Uncertain slur continuation |
