b. 240

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

Long accent in A

 in GE (→FE,EE,IE)

..

It is unclear whether the A mark is to be understood as a long accent or as a diminuendo – both versions seem to be musically acceptable. In the main text we provide an accent due to the shape of the mark, closer to accents. Moreover, according to us, the beginning of the tenor voice motif, emphasised by a slur, is another argument for an accent. In GE (→FE,EE,IE) the mark, extended between both crotchets, is definitely a diminuendo.

b. 241-242

composition: Op. 43, Tarantella

..

In A due to the charred corner of the page the part beginning with b. 241 to the end of b. 242 is illegible.

B1 in EE, GC (→GE) & FE

B2-B1 proposed by the editors

..

Lacking in the sources is the bottom note of the L.H. octave, B2. As the scale of Chopin's piano only reached down to C1, the addition seems more than justified. Cf. bar 491.

b. 241

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

..

FE1 features an Fas the bottom most note of the chord. The patent in this context mistake was corrected in FE2 (→EE,FE3FE4). In GE1 the chord was also printed with a mistake, entirely omitting the correct bass note (the bottom most note is an F). The remaining sources include the correct version.

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

in GC

No sign in FE (→EE) & GE

..

Chopin omitted  signs quite frequently at the end of pieces. In this case, however, the oversights by the engravers of FE (→EE) and GE are more probable.
