b. 656

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

..

In the R.H. part, there are no accidentals in the 2nd half of the bar in FE. The necessary sharps were added in GE and EE (in EE1, only before the 7th semiquaver).

b. 656-657

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

d2 tied in A (→FC→GE)

d2 repeated in FE (→EE)
..

The missing tie of d2 is most probably an oversight of the engraver of FE (→EE).

b. 656

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

Small crotchet in A (→FC→GE1, →FE→EE)

Acciaccatura in GE2 (→GE3)
..

In the main text we give the only authentic notation of the ornament, written in A. However, we accept the notation of GE2 (→GE3), since it almost certainly marks the same performance.

b. 657

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

..

FE (→EE, GE1 (→GE2) has a cautionary  before a before the 2nd chord in the L.H. It is a remaining element of the original notation of the 1st chord, in which there was an a​​​​​​​ instead of g (traces of a corresponding proofreading are clearly visible in FE). The accidental, unjustified in the final version, was removed in GE3. In GE1 (→GE2), cautionary naturals before c and c1, as well as before the c2 semiquaver, were added before that chord. We include all of them in the main text. A natural before c was added also in EE2 (→EE3), whereas in GE3 all accidentals before the 2nd chord were removed; only the  before c2 was left.
