b. 206-208

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

No markings in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

     in GE3

[    ] suggested by the editors
..

The  mark in bar 205, which is not followed by a  mark in the majority of the sources, may be interpreted as a general col  or  simile indication (cf. e.g. the Etude in E major, op. 10, no. 11, bars 3-4). However, according to us, an inaccuracy, caused by a combination of oversights of both Chopin and the engraver of FE (e.g. the  mark in bar 205 would have fallen in FE at the end of the line, which favours inaccuracies), is more likely in this case. The additions suggested in the main text are modelled after the authentic indications in bars 203-204. A similar addition was introduced into GE3.

b. 206

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

 without  in A (→FE→EE) & GE2 (→GE3)

No  in FC (→GE1)

with [] suggested by the editors
..

The missing  in FC (→GE1) could be an oversight of the copyist, corrected in GE2 (→GE3), probably on the basis of analogy with b. 74. The missing  over the mordent must be Chopin's inaccuracy: see b. 74.
A similar situation is to be found in b. 657.

b. 206

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

c3 in FE (→GE)

a2 in EE
..

Like in b. 62, the version of EE is most probably the initial version or a mistake, corrected then in FE (→GE).

b. 206

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

Like in b. 62, of which this bar is a literal repetition, there are no accidentals before the 1st, 3rd and 6th notes under the octave sign in FE (→GE1). In the main text we add respective accidentals –  of e3,  of f3 and  of d3. The first two were also added in EE, while in GE2 (→GE3) – only the first one.

b. 206

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

Accent in FE (→GE1,EE)

No mark in GE1a (→GE2→GE3)
..

Due to the graphic retouches of this fragment of the page in GE1a, the accent under the b2 quaver was overlooked, which was also repeated in GE2 (→GE3).
