b. 283

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

c1 in A & GE2

No c1 in GE1 (→FEEE)

..

The version of GE1 (→FEEE) is a result of Chopin's proofreading, which is proved by the traces of deletion of con the 5th quaver in the bottom voice. However, a more detailed analysis of traces of corrections in print proves that it was also gthat was being removed there. It means that Chopin most probably did not proofread the text of A, which was fine, but the false c1-a1-c2-gchord: . Concentrated on correcting the sound in the place of mistake, it is possible that the composer did not thoroughly check the context and resolved the e1-dseventh to the a1-cthird, particularly since a similar shape of accompaniment appears three bars later in bar 286, very similar in terms of harmony. Moreover, taking into account the possibility of an accidental removal of the correct cnote as a result of a misunderstanding at the time of implementing the proofreading, in the main text we give the version of A. The proofread version of GE1 can be considered an equal variant.

b. 283-286

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

No L.H. slurs in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

Slurs in GE3

Slurs suggested by the editors

..

In such a quasi-parallel figuration, the slurs in the R.H. generally apply also to the L.H., particularly when both parts are written, partially or completely, on one stave. Therefore, the source notation without separate slurs for the L.H. may be considered to be complete. However, at the repetition of this fragment (bars 299-302), Chopin provided with slurs also the L.H., which, according to us, indicates rather the need to specify the notation than to differentiate between the markings of both four-bar fragments. Due to this reason, in the main text we suggest adding slurs of the L.H. Slurs were introduced already in GE3

b. 283-284

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

No markings in FE (→GE)

 in bar 284 in EE

Pedalling suggested by the editors

..

In the main text, we add pedalling markings on the basis of comparison with analogous bars 299-300. In bar 284, the addition was performed already in EE.

Fingering written into FED

Fingering written into FEH

No teaching fingering

..

The fingering, written probably by the hand of the pupil in FEH, was changed in this bar – the a-g transition was initially marked with the 2 and 3 digits. The correction could have been suggested by Chopin, which is indicated by further compliance with the entry in FED. In the main text, we include the indication of the latter, whose authenticity is unquestionable and which specifies the unobvious use of the 1st finger on a black key, crucial for a comfortable grip of the chord in the next bar.

b. 283-284

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

Slur to b2 in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

Slur to b3 in GE3

..

The slur of FE (→EE,GE1GE2) is almost certainly too long – the engraver must have confused the b3 quaver in bar 283 with the b2 quaver in bar 284, which is placed at the same height. Therefore, we acknowledge the correction introduced in GE3 in the main text.
