b. 70-72

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

 in GE

in FE (→EE)

..

The trills in b. 70 and 72 were written in GE without a wavy line after . In the main text we follow the more suggestive notation of FE (→EE).

b. 78

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

in GE

 in FE (→EE)

..

To the main text we adopt the notation of GE, based on [A]. Chopin would use both symbols interchangeably to mark a mordent; however, the version of FE may be regarded as a variant.

b. 105

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

Arpeggio in GE

No mark in FE (→EE)

..

In the main text we include the arpeggio visible in GE. The missing arpeggio in FE (→EE) could be explained by an oversight of the copyist or of the engraver; it could also have been entered into [A] after [FC] had already been finished (→FE).

b. 106-110

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

in GE

 in FE (→EE)

..

The trills in bars 106 and 110 are printed in GE without wavy lines after the  signs. As we have always done before, we base the main text on the more suggestive notation of FE (→EE).

we write trills with full wavy lines, since there are no doubts that this is how the markings present in the sources are to be understood – see the note in b. 10.

b. 107

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

Slur in GE1, literal reading

No sign in FE (→EE) & GE2

Arpeggio sign, contextual interpretation of GE1

..

As was the case with analogous b. 31 and 57, the slur of GE, although formally correct, is most probably inaccurate and marks a grace note and an arpeggio (written down as a vertical slur). The missing slur (arpeggio) in FE (→EE) is most probably an oversight by the copyist in [FC] or by the engraver.
