b. 462-463

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

Slur to c3 in A

Slur to d3 in GE (→EE→EE)
..

The slur in the R.H. starting in bar 462 reaches only the last note in this bar in A. It is almost certainly a trace of the original notation, which is supported by an extension of the slur in an analogous situation one bar earlier. Chopin's oversight was corrected already in GE1, most probably by the composer himself. At the same time, the visible traces of corrections in print prove that it was different slurs than in A that were subject to proofreading – it is likely that initially each of bars 461-464 was encompassed with a separate, whole-bar slur (bar 462 certainly was).

The missing  mark in A (→GE) is most probably an inaccuracy, resulting from the transition into a new page. Prior to this place, Chopin wrote a respective sign in an analogous situation three times (bars 414, 422 and 454). The omission of the  mark in FE (→EE) is most probably an oversight.

e3 in A (literal reading→GE→FE1)

e3 in A (contextual interpretation) & FE2

e3 & e3 in EE
..

Just like in bars 422-423, the flats lowering e3 to e3 and the cautionary  before e2 in the L.H. in bar 463 prove that the version of A (→GE→FE1), interpreted literally, is erroneous. In EE, a respective  is only in bar 463 (together with a  before e2), which is probably a result of an oversight of the sign in bar 462.

Accent in FE (→GE,EE)

No mark suggested by the editors

We omit the accent in the main text, which could have been placed here by mistake – in analogous bars 458, 466 and 470, the respective crotchet is not accented.
