The tie to b was reproduced correctly only in EE2 (→EE3). The inaccuracies of the remaining editions resulted from the Chopinesque manner of writing down ties as short, quite thick curved lines, not running from a note to the other one, but placed next to the attached note (cf., e.g. the first page of the autograph of the Mazurka in G major, Op. 50 No. 1, particularly the e-e1 octaves in b. 18-20 and 22-24). In the discussed bars of the Polonaise, the parts of both hands (4 voices!) are written down on the bottom stave, which could have been an additional obstacle to the correct interpretation and reproduction of that tie. There is a similar situation two bars later. The slur of FE (→EE) over b. 198-200, which ends in the same place, is discussed separately. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , Errors in GE |

In FE (→EE1) the dots prolonging the E and b minims were overlooked. The mistake was corrected in EE2 (→EE3). See also the next note. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE , Errors repeated in EE |

The version of FE must be incomplete, which is supported by a comparison with all analogous places – b. 142-145, 162-165, 203-204 and 221-224. However, it is difficult to say whether it resulted from oversights of FE or of its earlier handwritten basis or whether Chopin supplemented the notation of [A] after [FC] had already been finished. In EE1 that version was reproduced with a Terzverschreibung mistake on the 2nd beat of b. 201. In the main text we give the correct version of GE, undoubtedly intended by Chopin, introduced also by the reviser of EE2 (→EE3). The missing tie and B in FE (→EE1) are probably an oversight of the engraver, corrected in EE2 (→EE3). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE |
