b. 211-212

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

 in bar 211 in GC (→GE)

No sign in FE (→EE)

 in bar 212 suggested by the editors
..

The placing of the  sign (diminuendo/long accent) at the end of bar 211 in GC (→GE) is certainly a mistake – cf. bars 212-213, and an inaccurate slurring, e.g. in bars 212-214. We consider the omission of the sign in FE (→EE) to be an error as well. In the main text we shift the sign written in GC to the beginning of bar 212, accordingly with the analogous motives.

In the main text we add cautionary flats to e1 in bars 211, 214, 219 and 222 (in the latter also in an alternative version, to the 5th semiquaver).

b. 212

composition: Op. 42, Waltz in A♭ major

The sign added in FED, a vertical line, probably underlines the necessity to separate the ending unisono phrase from the following refrain.

b. 212

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

..

FE has a g as the bottom note of the 1st crotchet in the bar. This patent mistake was corrected in the base text to EE. GC (→GE) also includes the correct f.
