b. 269

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

Crotchet in GE & FE

Dotted crotched in EE
..

Like in analogous b. 36, the missing dots prolonging the f1-f2 octave must be Chopin's oversight. The dots were added by EE.

b. 269

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

..

In the main text we add a cautionary  to F. The accidental was also added by FE (it cannot be ruled out that at Chopin's request) and by EE3, probably on the basis of a comparison with FE.

b. 270-272

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

4 accents in A & GE2

3 accents in GE1

3 accents in FE

4 accents in EE
..

The omission of the 2nd accent in bar 272 in GE1 (→FE) must be an oversight. The accents in FE are placed inaccurately – the second one in bar 270 can be interpreted to apply to the 7th quaver, whereas the sign in bar 272 was placed under the 3rd note in the bar. In EE the 2nd accent in bar 272 was added, yet it was placed under the 1st note of the triplet, analogously to the one in bar 270. Both remaining accents were arbitrarily changed to vertical ones.

In the main text, we add a cautionary  before B. The mark was added already in GE3.
