Issues : Omitted correction of an analogous place

b. 286

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt I

e2 repeated in A (→GEFEEE1EE2)

e2 tied in EE3

Tie to e2 suggested by the editors

..

In the main text we suggest tying e2, after the Chopin proofreading of FE in the analogous bar of the exposition (bar 138). The tie was added in EE3, most probably on the basis of comparison with the exposition.

Half-bar slur in sources

Our variant suggestion

..

In the analogous figure in bar 309, Chopin shortened the slur, so that it would start from the 2nd quaver. Therefore, it cannot be excluded that he forgot to introduce a similar correction in this place. Taking into account this possibility, we suggest a shorter slur as an alternative version.

b. 344

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III

Dotted rhythm in A

Quavers in GE (→FEEE)

..

The dotted rhythm in A is the original version (cf. analogous bar 20), left here by Chopin, perhaps unintentionally. Therefore, the quavers in GE (→FEEE) may be a result of Chopin's proofreading, although the absence of visible traces of performing changes in print allows us to consider a possible mistake of the engraver.

b. 374

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No fingering in sources

[1] suggested by the editors

..

The fact that there is no indication that f should be taken over by the L.H. is to be considered an inaccuracy of notation. Chopin could have considered the indication in very similar b. 293 to be clear enough, yet it is also possible that he simply overlooked that place while adding ones in b. 293 and 395.
