b. 119

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

g1 in A (→GE) & FE2 (→EE)

f1 in chord in FE1
..

The f1 note present in FE1 as the bottom note of the R.H. chord must be a mistake, corrected – perhaps by Chopin – in FE2 (→EE).

b. 119-120

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

Slur in A (→GE)

No slur in FE (→EE)
..

The missing slur in FE (→EE) is most probably a mistake by the copyist or by the engraver.

b. 119

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt I

Slur divided after 3rd quaver in A, literal reading

Slur divided before 3rd quaver in A (con­textual interpretation→GE→FE,EE,IE)
..

When interpreted literally, the A slurs are divided after the 3rd quaver in the bar. The comparison with analogous bar 131, 133 and 135 reveals that the notation is inaccurate. Therefore, to the main text we adopt the interpretation introduced by GE (→FE,EE,IE), in which the slur is divided before the 3rd quaver in the bar.

b. 119-120

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt I

..

In A the majority of accidentals to the top notes of even quavers is missing – the only one is the  raising f3 to f3 in bar 120. The five remaining necessary signs were added in GE (→EE,IE), of which only four were included in FE1 – apart from the  raising a3 to a3 in bar 119. The omitted accidental was added in FE2.

b. 119-121

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt I

No slurs in A

Slurs in GE (→FE,EE,IE)

Slurs suggested by the editors
..

In the main text we suggest supplementing L.H. slurs after authentic markings in the majority of similar motifs in the previous bars. Such slurs were already added by GE (→FE,EE,IE).
