b. 325-327

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

Slur in A, literal reading

Slur in A (contextual interpretation) & GE2

No slur in GE1 (→FEEE)

..

In A bar 325 is the last one on the page. The slur in the L.H. clearly suggests a continuation (similarly as the slur in the R.H.), which, however, is absent on a new page (in bar 326). In GE1 (→FEEE) the slur was completely overlooked, whereas in GE2 the slur of A together with the overlooked ending was restored. Since this is how Chopin's intention undoubtedly looked like, in this case in the main text we include the slur of GE2.

b. 325

Short accents in FE (→GE)

Vertical accents in EE

..

Frequent changes of accents from horizontal to vertical is one of the characteristic revisions of EE – cf. e.g. bar 320. In this case, vertical accents were consistently introduced also in the next three bars.

b. 325

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

..

In FE (→EE1), there is no  restoring a2 in the last pair of semiquavers. This patent inadvertence was added in GE and EE2 (→EE3). In the same editions, a cautionary  before the 5th semiquaver awas also added, which we include in the main text, as well as a  before c3, which does not seem to be necessary. In turn, we preserve the formally unnecessary  before ein the 5th pair of semiquavers, present in all editions.

Fingering written into FEH

No fingering in FE (→GE)

Fontana's fingering in EE

..

Both in EE and FEH, the bar was provided with fingering very carefully, applying the same rule for the top notes of the thirds – the 1st finger on a white key, the 2nd – on a black one (cf. bars 322-324). The fingering of the bottom notes is also very similar – the 3rd finger on a black key and the 4th – on a white one; however, in FEH, the rule is modified when two subsequent white keys appear. As a result, both fingerings differ only in the digit applying to e1.
The last digit in FEH was changed from 3 to 4 – it is most probably a correction of a mistake.

b. 325-326

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

Slur in FE (literal reading→GE,EE)

Slur in FE, contextual interpretation

..

The extended ending of the slur in FE in bar 325 – in that source it is the last bar on the page – suggests its continuation, unconfirmed, however, by the slurless first half of bar 326. The comparison with analogous bars 321-322 (as well as 329-330) proves that the slur should be continued to the 4th semiquaver of the next bar. The revisers of GE and EE deemed the end of slur in bar 325 inaccurate, and shortened it.
