b. 310

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

..

In A there is no  before the 3rd quaver in the L.H. (d1). This patent inaccuracy was corrected already in GE1 (→FE→EE, →GE2).

Half-bar slur in sources

Our variant suggestion
..

In the analogous figure in bar 309, Chopin shortened the slur, so that it would start from the 2nd quaver. Therefore, it cannot be excluded that he forgot to introduce a similar correction in this place. Taking into account this possibility, we suggest a shorter slur as an alternative version.

Staccato dot suggested by the editors
..

In the main text we suggest adding a staccato dot over the 1st quaver in the bar by analogy with the previous bar as well as taking into account the staccato in the identical figure in bar 160.

b. 310

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

..

The natural raising a to a is written in A with pencil. The sign clearly differs from both typical Chopinesque naturals and the signs added in bar 314 (as well as from the  written with pencil in the part of the clarinet I in Morch in this place). Moreover, a denser text in GE1 suggests that in this edition a corresponding sign was added only in the proofreading. Therefore, it may be one of the later, foreign additions – cf. bar 256.

Fingering written into FEFo

No teaching fingering
..

In the main text, we do not give here the fingering of FEFo, most probably coming from Chopin, since we have already included a version of that entry, expanded with one digit, in analogous bar 294.
