Small-print f1 in A (→GE)

Normal-print octave in FE (→EE)

Small-print octave suggested by the editors

Replacing the single fnote with an f-foctave in FE (→EE) is certainly a change introduced by Chopin – cf. 1st mov., bar 348. However, the same cannot be said of printing this octave with notes of a normal size, in both bars. There had to be a misunderstanding at the time of implementing the proofreading, since adding this octave to the solo part is unimaginable, as far as the logic of the dialogue between the soloist and the orchestra is concerned.
