b. 254

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

in FE (→EE)

No marking in GE
..

The missing  in GE seems to be an oversight of the engraver of GE1. However, performing this highly spectacular passage in  dynamics is quite an uncommon effect, so that one can ponder whether the mark was not put in FE by mistake, e.g. instead of in bar 256, in which it was then added. Therefore, it would be an example of unfinished proofreading. (Cf. bar 248, in which a purely virtuoso element – scale in an interval of sixth – is dynamically distinguished between ​​​​​​​ in bar 244 and leggierissimo in bar 250).

Fingering written into FEH

No fingering in FE (→GE)

Fontana's fingering in EE in bar 258
..

Fontana's fingering in EE is most probably compliant with the one entered in FEH, although the indications themselves do not overlap. Providing indications only just in the second (identical) passage is noteworthy – it is a frequent phenomenon among the Chopinesque teaching entries.

FE is missing naturals before the 6th semiquaver in bars 254 and 255. The patent inaccuracies were corrected in GE and EE. There is a similar situation in bar 258.
