b. 297

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

..

In the main text we omit the  to e1 in the 3rd semiquaver triplet, unnecessarily repeated in the sources. In A one can see that initially there was also a  in the 5th triplet, from which, however, it was removed. By contrast, we leave the reminder  to d2 in the 4th triplet, since d3, occurring a moment later, may raise doubts as to the sound of this note.

No accents in AsI & FESB

Short accents in A (→GE→FE)

Vertical accents in EE
..

The lack of accents in AsI results from the working nature of this score. In FESB, they were probably overlooked.
Arbitrary changes of the font of accents are a characteristic feature of EE.

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

..

There is an erroneous  before the 1st semiquaver in the L.H. in the 2nd half of the bar in FE1. The mistake was corrected already in FE2. It is probably a revision, although Chopin's participation cannot be excluded.

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

Wedge in A

Dot in GE1 (→FE)

Dots in EE & GE2
..

Reproducing the wedge over d1 as a dot must be an inaccuracy of GE (→FE→EE). In turn, the dot for the L.H., added in EE and GE2, is a revision of the editors.

..

We add cautionary flats before d and d1 in the main text.
