b. 364

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

No sign in FE (→GE,EE)

[] suggested by the editors
..

According to us, a  hairpin in the next bar and pairs of   marks in similar, two-bar passages in bars 356-357, 358-359 and 366-367 prove a highly likely oversight of the  mark in this bar. Therefore, in the main text we suggest a ​​​​​​​ mark after analogous bar 356.

b. 364

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

..

The flat to the 7th semiquaver (d3) is written in A much below the pitch of the note, that is at the pitch of a2. Such inaccuracies, generally without an influence on the text reading, are frequent in Chopin's autographs.
