As before, in A (→FC→GE) the majority of the groups of repeated quavers were written as dotted crotchets or minims provided with quaver tremolo marks. In A this is how the L.H. in b. 32-33 and in the 2nd halves of b. 27-31, 36-37 and 42 and the R.H. in the 1st half of b. 32 and in the 2nd halves of b. 27, 29, 31, 33-34 and 42 were marked. There is a similar situation in FC (→GE) – except b. 36, while in GE also except b. 27. In addition, in FC (→GE1) the tremolo beam in b. 33 was overlooked – see the note in that bar. category imprint: Differences between sources; Source & stylistic information issues: GE revisions , Abbreviated notation of A , Errors of FC |

b. 28-38

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I
..
In bars 28-35 and 37-38, Chopin used in Atut an abbreviated notation of the repeated quavers. In FE (→EE,GE1→GE2), the abbreviations were explained, like in our system. In bars 28-35, identical abbreviations were re-introduced in GE3. According to us, this compliance is accidental, which is supported by the fact that the notation in bars 37-38 differs – Chopin would use abbreviations to minimise writing, whereas the primary aim of the engraver of GE3 was to save space. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Abbreviated notation of A |

In A1 the L.H. part is marked in an abridged manner as a repetition of the preceding bar (•/•). Chopin used an abbreviation also in [A2] (→CJ,CK), yet the notation is inaccurate – two / marks interpreted literally mean a double repetition of the last figure in the preceding bar. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Abbreviated notation of A |

In A (→FC→GE) the repeated quavers are marked as a minim tremolo. Such a notation was used in A in the entire bar in b. 28-34, 37-38 and 42 and in the second halves of b. 35-36, 39 and 43, while in FC (→GE) also in the first halves of b. 36 and 39. category imprint: Source & stylistic information issues: Abbreviated notation of A |
