b. 225

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

Fingering written into FEH

No teaching fingering
..

In FEH, a '1' was initially written over the 2nd quaver (by mistake?  – cf. bar 228), which was then changed to a '5'.

b. 225

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

..

We add a cautionary  before e​​​​​​​2 in the main text.

b. 225-226

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No markings in A (→FE→EE)

One-bar pedalling in FC (→GE1) & GE3

Two-bar pedal in GE2
..

In FC (→GE1) Chopin wrote here two one-bar pedals. According to us, it is an oversight of the composer, who wrote one two-bar pedal in analogous b. 93-94, in accordance with the harmonic sense. Due to the above reason, we suggest that version in the main text. Chopin committed such a mistake also in b. 213-214, where the superfluous pedal change was yet noticed and crossed out. A two-bar pedal was introduced in GE2; however, GE3 restored the notation of FC.
A similar situation can be found in b. 676-677.

b. 225

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

FE are lacking in the  lowering c2 to c2. This patent inaccuracy was corrected in GE and EE. There is a similar situation in b. 241 and 245, which suggests that a corresponding  present in FE in this place the first time (b. 221) could have been added in a hasty process of proofreading, since b. 241-260 were probably marked in [A] in an abridged manner.

b. 225

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

Minim in FE (→EE)

Dotted minim in GE
..

The missing dot next to the b minim in FE (→EE) is probably an oversight by the copyist or the engraver (cf. b. 166). However, the dot is also absent in AImaz, which, in case of an alternative filiation, may indicate that [A2] did not include a dot.
