b. 362-363

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

No slur in FE (→GE,EE1)

Slur in EE2 (→EE3)

Slur suggested by the editors

category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions

issues: EE revisions

b. 362

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

4 staccato dots in A

5 wedges in GE (→FE,EE,FESB)

5 dots suggested by the editors

..

The dots having been replaced with wedges was an arbitrary decision of the engraver of GE1 – see bars 271-272. The absence of a dot in A over the penultimate quaver probably resulted from ink stoppage.

b. 362

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

No G1 in sources

Grace note G1 suggested by the editors

..

The missing G1 note at the beginning of the bar seems Chopin's mistake, as it is present in analogous figures in bar 360 and 364. One can ponder whether the unwritten note was supposed to be an element of the octave, as in bar 360, or a grace note, as in bar 364; stylistic arguments are not enough to resolve this doubt. However, the latter seems more likely – in A the gap before the 1st note in bar 362 is clearly bigger than the resulting from the density of notation in this part of the page, which could be indicating an oversight of a planned element, e.g. a grace note.

b. 362

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

Slur from 2nd to 6th quaver in A, literal reading

Slur from 1st to 7th quaver in GE (→FE,EE,IE)

..

It is hard to imagine that the slur in A, taken literally, covering the 5 middle quavers of a uniform arpeggio, was meant to correspond to Chopin's intention. We therefore believe – like the engraver or editor of GE(→FE,EE,IE) – that this is one of many examples of imprecise A slurs.

b. 363-364

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

..

Four necessary flats lowering g to g (in different octaves) are missing in A: Chopin wrote signs only at the beginning of the bars, in the L.H. in bar 363 and in the R.H. in bar 364. In GE1 (→FE1EE1EE2) a  was added before the bass G in bar 365, but it is only GE2 and EE3 that include the fully correct notation.
