b. 663

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

Fingering in FE (→EE)

No fingering in GE
..

The fingering of the L.H. was added by Chopin most probably in the last phase of proofreading of FE (→EE).

b. 664

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No marking in A (→FE→EE)

in FC (→GE)
..

Chopin added the  indication in FC (→GE) in b. 213, and the discussed bar is a repetition thereof.

b. 664-665

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

No indication in A (→FE→EE)

dolce in bar 664 in FC (→GE1)

dolce in bar 665 in GE2 (→GE3)
..

According to Chopin, these bars were supposed to be an exact repetition of b. 213-214. Therefore, in the main text we give the dolce indication in b. 664, in accordance with the Chopinesque entry in b. 213 in FC (→GE1). In subsequent GE the indication was arbitrarily moved to b. 665, probably by analogy with b. 81-82.

b. 664-665

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

in FC (→GE1)

Shorter  in GE2 (→GE3)
..

In the main text we give the  mark entered by Chopin into FC (→GE1) in b. 213-214. In subsequent GE – like in analogous b. 81-82 and 213-214 – the mark was arbitrarily placed between  and dolce.

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

Fingering written into FED

No teaching fingering
..

The fingering in FED quite significantly differs from the other entries in this copy in terms of size and font, so it seems that it could not have been written by Chopin or Miss O'Meara. In spite of that, the fingering is practically identical with the one that Chopin wrote above a similar sequence of chromatic fourths in the copy of the Grand Duo Concertant, Dbop. 29 belonging to Miss Forest.
