b. 219

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

4 dots in A

5 dots in GE (→FEEE)

..

According to us, the additional dot in GE (→FEEE) is most probably a mistake of the engraver of GE1.

b. 219

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

Slurs in A

Slurs in GE1

Slurs in FE (→EE)

Slur in GE2

..

In the main text we give the slurs of A, since the changes of their range and placement are introduced in the editions almost certainly inauthentically:

  • In GE1 one slur embraces almost an entire bar and it was probably meant to combine both Chopin slurs. At the same time, the clearly marked in A ending of the slur on the d3 minim in the next bar was ignored. The slur over the group of grace notes was moved under the notes and it was printed so inaccurately that it practically combines the c2 and fcrotchets.
  • The slurs were then repeated in FE (→EE) with further, minor shifts, also certainly arbitrary.
  • In GE2 the slur under the group of grace notes was removed, whereas the top slur was extended to the next bar (in accordance with A).

Similarly as in bars 217-218, we consider the subsequent shortenings of the  sign in GE (→FE) and EE to be accidental, hence in the main text we reproduce the notation of A.

g1 in A (→GEFE1)

b1 in FE2 (→EE)

..

The version of A (→GEFE1), changed by Chopin in the proofreading of FE2 (→EE), was already a result of a correction in A – originally, the 7th quaver was most probably a c2. In the main text we give the latest of these three authentic versions.

Our variant suggestion

..

We suggest adding characteristic accents, in accordance with the notation in analogous bar 107. The marks were probably added by the revisers of GE and EE. In EE2 (→EE3), in addition, the last accent was arbitrarily changed to a vertical one.
