b. 579-580

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

2 staccato dots in A (→FC)

No marks in FE (→EE)

4 staccato dots in GE

3 staccato dots, our alternative suggestion

..

In the main text we preserve the version of A (→FC), since there are no indications that Chopin was removing dots in FE or adding them in GE. However, it is uncertain whether the missing dot in b. 580 was intentional, since the bar opens a new line of text, which would often contribute to various inaccuracies of notation.

b. 581-588

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

8 short accents in EE, GE and probably in GC

Possible long accents in GC

7 long accents in FE

..

Accents in these bars may be interpreted as long (especially in FE, and probably in GC) or short (EE and GE, more probbale in GC). For the main text we adopt short accents because of the notation including rests at the end if each bar - if Chopin wanted to suggest longer sounds, he should have written crotchets. As and additional argument to support this view, we see that in FE in bars 613-616, repeating bars 581-584, there are short accents. In FE there is no accent in 588, which is obvious inaccuracy.

b. 581

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

Sixth in FE (→EE1EE2)

Octave in GE & EE3

..

The version of GE must be erroneous, which is supported by the logic of the course of the melodic line, confirmed by the version of analogous bar 69 and 230. Locally, the mistake is not manifest, so the reviser of EE3, having apparently a great confidence in GE, introduced that version instead of the correct text.

b. 581

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

Wedge in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

No mark in GE3

..

Omission of the wedge over G is most probably an oversight of the engraver of GE3, although one also cannot exclude a revision, motivated, e.g. by the missing staccato mark in similar bar 597.
