b. 431

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

Staccato dot in sources

Wedge suggested by the editors
..

This is one of only two places in the entire figurational section of the development (from bar 408) in which a dot was used as a staccato mark at the beginning of the bar, instead of a wedge. According to us, it is almost certainly an inaccuracy of notation. Cf. bar 438.

In the main text, we add a  sign, possibly overlooked by the engraver of FE (→GE). It was also added by the reviser of EE.

b. 432-433

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

f2 tied in A, contextual interpretation

f2 repeated in GE (→FE→EE)
..

In A, the tie sustaining f2 is written only in bar 433, opening a new page in A. It could have been a reason for its omission in GE (→FE→EE).

Slurs from 3rd semiquaver in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

Dots & slurs in GE3

Slurs from 1st semiquaver suggested by the editors
..

In the main text, we suggest starting the slurs in both hands from the 1st semiquaver, since in similar places slurs starting from the beginning of semiquaver sequences are more frequent (e.g. in the next bar or in bars 412-413). In GE3, shorter slurs were kept, whereas the first two semiquavers were arbitrarily provided with staccato dots.
