b. 563-564

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

 &  in EE

No markings in GC (→GE) & FE
..

Additional change of the pedal in EE is most probably authentic. However, for the main text we adopt the consistent GC and FE version, as the two sources most probably based on Chopin's autograph.

b. 563

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

..

In FE (→EE1), this bar is written without cautionary accidentals. In GE, naturals were added before b3 and a3 as well as  ​​​​​​​before f3; in turn, in EE2 a  before b3 and a  ​​​​​​​before f​​​​​​​3, while in EE3 also naturals before a3 and the second d1 in the L.H. In the main text, we include all the aforementioned accidentals and we also add a  before the first d1 in the L.H.

b. 564

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

..

In FE (→EE1), there are 4 cautionary accidentals in this bar: naturals before g3, b2 and e2 as well as a  before f​​​​​​​3. In GE, naturals were added also before c3 and c2, whereas in EE2 (→EE3), only before c3. In the main text, we include the accidentals present in GE except  before b2.

b. 564-565

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

Continuous slur in FE (→EE)

Separate slurs in GE
..

The separation of the slurs over the barline probably results from lack of space – in GE, the slur in bars 565-566 did not fit over the notes and was led at the bottom, which forced a break of the slur.

b. 565

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

In FE no  mark at the end of ther bar must be an error as the mark is present in all the other sources.
