Slur in FE (→EE)

Slurs in FC (→GE)

Slurs suggested by the editors

The slur encompassing the sequence of thirds in bar 44 was added to FC almost certainly by Chopin. However, unlike in bars 8-9, Chopin did not shorten the top slur, which also reaches the end of the bar. According to us, the reason could have been to avoid an excessive number of deletions, hence in the main text we suggest the same notation as in bars 8-9.
