b. 108-109

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

c1 repeated in sources

c1 tied suggested by the editors
..

The missing tie of c2 is most probably Chopin's oversight – a corresponding tie is in analogous bars 106-107. See also the note on sustaining b2 in the R.H. as well as bars 107-108.

..

The 2nd note in FE (→GE) is a d. Chopin corrected this patent mistake in FED and FES. EE also include the correct version.

b. 108

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt II

Continuous slur in sources

2 slurs suggested by the editors
..

A continuous slur in the L.H. in the 2nd half of this bar was most probably added in a proofreading of FE, replacing the slur encompassing the last 4 semiquavers. However, Chopin could have added a slur from the B note in the middle of the bar to the d2 note before the semiquaver rest, and the engraver considered it an extension of the already printed slur. Due to this reason, although the source slur can correspond to Chopin's intention, it seems quite likely that the composer meant here two slurs separated with a rest, like in analogous bar 106.

b. 108

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt II

..

In FES, there is a fingering digit ('1') written by the pupil's hand over the 7th semiquaver. It must be a mistake, since such a fingering is contrary to the digits written there by Chopin – see bars 106-108. Cf. the comment on bar 116.

 under 6th triplet in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

 under 5th triplet in GE3
..

The pedalling of the majority of the sources must be erroneous – the pedal must be changed in the middle of the bar, together with the change of chord (cf. bar 106). See also the note on the  marking.
