b. 307-310

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

Short accents in sources

Long accents suggested by the editors
..

As before, in the main text we suggest long accents in bars 307 and 310, more suitable for minims in this harmonic context.

issues: Long accents

b. 307-309

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Small notes in A (→FC→GE)

Regular font in FE (→EE)
..

The notation in normal font notes is a result of the engraver of FE (→EE) having misunderstood A.

b. 307

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In A one can see the original crossed-out version of that crotchet, i.e. the G-d-b chord.

b. 307

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

g1 in A (→FC→GE) & FESf

b1 in FE (→EE1), contextual interpretation, and EE2 (→EE3)
..

The 2nd small quaver in FE (→EE1) is an erroneous b1, which we interpret as b1, since overlooked accidentals are much more common than Terzverschreibung mistakes. This is how this place was revised in EE2 (→EE3), by adding a  before that note. The correction in ink performed in FESf restores the correct pitch of that note, i.e. g1.

b. 307

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

Chord without b1 in GE & FE (→EE1)

Chord with b1 in EE2
..

The chord with b1 in EE2 (→EE3) is an arbitrary revision, most probably resulting from a comparison with b. 48 and 281, in which that note is present in the first chord in all sources (probably by mistake).
