b. 456

b. 456-457

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

No marks in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

Accents in GE3

Same accents suggested by the editors
..

In the main text, we suggest adding accents, since they appear in all the remaining three phrases in similar bars.

b. 456-458

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

No slurs in FE (→GE1→GE2)

Slurs in EE & GE3
..

The missing slurs must be an inaccuracy of notation. It is indicated by a slur in an identical figure in bars 458-459 and all subsequent slurs in similar situations. Slurs were added already in EE and GE3.

b. 456-457

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

Fingering written into FEH

No teaching fingering
..

The fingering written in FEH is undoubtedly the most natural and rather obvious explanation of the printed Chopinesque indication. Therefore, both the detailed fingering of almost each note in bar 456 and repetition of those indications in the next, identical figure are conspicuous.
