b. 296-298

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

No marks in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

Staccato dots in GE3
..

The staccato dots, with which GE3 provided the quaver chords and the octaves in bars 296 and 298, are an arbitrary addition of revision.

b. 296-309

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

Pedalling in GE

No markings in FE (→EE)
..

In the main text we include the pedal markings of GE, entered probably into [A] after [FC] had been finished. We discuss b. 298 and 304 separately, in which the markings are also absent in GE.

b. 296-297

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

In GE and FE1 there are no accidentals to the d notes (in various octaves) on the 3rd beat of both bars. The remaining editions added the following naturals:

  • FE2 to the bottom note of the L.H. chord in b. 296 (d) and to d2 in both bars;
  • EE1 to d and d2 in b. 296;
  • EE2 also to d1 and d2 in b. 297.

In the main text we include only the L.H. accidentals.

b. 296-299

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

As with the other similar bars, in FE (→EE) it is only the top note of the R.H. octaves (written down in two-part notation) that is separated as a crotchet. It must be a mistake, hence to the main text we adopt the notation of GE, which is undoubtedly correct.

b. 296-297

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

Crotchets in GE & FE (→EE1)

Dotted crotchets in EE2 (→EE3)
..

In the main text we include the revision of EE2 (→EE3) due to the authentic dots in the next two bars and in analogous b. 37-38.
