b. 177

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

Short accent in FE

No mark in GE

Long accent in EE
..

The missing accent in GE must be an oversight. The long accent in EE1 seems to be an inaccuracy, which EE2 (→EE3) tried to correct by shifting the mark slightly to the left. In such a context, it is highly likely that it is a long accent that corresponds to the notation of [A].

There are no accidentals before the 3rd quaver in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2), so that the notes should be interpreted as d1-f​​​​​​​1. The obvious mistake is indicated by the orchestral part, which features d1 (in violins II) both in the parts of FEorch (→GEorch) and MFrorch. A comparison with the reappearance of that theme, a second higher, also clearly supports d1, since the respective place (bar 421) features e1 and not e1. It is the first of a few serious mistakes of FE concerning the notation of the orchestral inserts of that theme – cf. bar 179, 186, 187.
The natural lowering d1 to d1 was added in GE3.
