b. 260

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

No accidental in sources

suggested by the editors

In the main text we add a cautionary before d¹. The need for such an addition does not stem from the notation of the sources, yet in some popular collective editions the note was changed to d¹due to the erroneous e¹in the orchestral part.

b. 260

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

No sign in A

in GE (→FE→EE)

The absence of in A must be an oversight – it is the last bar on the page in A, which is conducive to various types of inaccuracies of notation. The sign was added already in GE1 (→FE→EE, →GE2), perhaps at Chopin's request.

b. 260

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

Looking at the notation of the L.H. in A, one can see that the sign is written under a¹, the 1st note of the triplet on the 2nd beat of the bar, whereas the sign under g¹, the 2nd note. According to us, Chopin was writing pedal change while looking at the R.H., since the change is undoubtedly related to the appearance of a new trilled note. Due to this reason, we interpret the pedalling of A in the main text in this way.
