b. 112

composition: Op. 64 No 2, Waltz in C♯ minor

Triad in As

Sixth in AI & A (→FE→GE,EE)
..

The g-c1-e1 triad in As is a possible interpretation of the 2nd crotchet in bar 48, of which bar 112 is a repetition (default).

b. 112

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

Fingering written into FED

No teaching fingering
..

The fingering digit before the penultimate semiquaver was written in FED twice – first '2', then '1'. At the same time, the notation indicates '1' as the final decision and this is the digit we include in the main text. Cf. the next note.

b. 112

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

Fingering written into FED

No teaching fingering
..

The fingering digit over the last semiquaver was changed in FED – one can see there both '2' and '1'. At the same time, it is unclear which of them is to be considered final, hence in the main text we give a variant solution with both possibilities.

b. 112

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

a2 in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

g2 in FES & GE3
..

Except for a2 at the end of the 2nd triplet, the passages in bars 111-113 are built exclusively from the chordal sounds. It suggests a possible mistake of FE (→EE,GE1→GE2), confirmed by a correction in FES. A change of a2 to g2 was introduced also in GE3.

b. 112

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

c2 repeated in FE (→GE)

c2 tied in EE
..

Sustaining the c2 note was probably meant to rhythmically assimilate the 2nd half of this bar to its twin passage in the 1st half of bar 111. The fingering added in FES proves that the note at the beginning of the passage is to be repeated, whereas the version of EE is an arbitrary intervention of the reviser.
