b. 152

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

One-bar slur in GC (→GE)

No slur in FE

Half-bar slur in EE
..

In GC two semi-bar slurs of the L.H. were combined, probably by Chopin. We include the correction in the main text, particularly due to the fact that EE includes an incomplete slurring in this place, whereas FE does not contain it at all.

b. 152

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

No sign in GC (→GE) & FE (→EE)

[] suggested by the editors
..

We suggest adding the  sign, overlooked in the sources, in accordance with the harmonic sense at the end of this bar. However, it cannot be excluded that Chopin considered here a change of the pedalling scheme from the previous bars, e.g., due to the lower register of the R.H. part.

b. 152-153

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt II

..

In the main text we add a cautionary  before g. The sign was already added in EE, in which also a  before a1 in the next bar appears (the latter was probably supposed to concern g1).

b. 152

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

Long accent in A

Short accent in GE (→FE→EE)
..

The "model" long accent in A was reproduced in the editions as a short one. Similarly in bar 154 as well as in bars 302 and 304.

b. 152

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

Slur to minim in A (→GE→FE)

Slur over triplet in EE
..

The slur embracing only the quaver triplet is an inaccuracy of revision of EE. The same slur was added also in the L.H. – see bars 145-160.
