b repeated in FE

b tied in GE1 (→GE2) & EE

b tied & augmented in GE3

..

The version of FE is almost certainly erroneous – cf. all the remaining analogous figures. Both in GE and EE, the tie of b was added, yet only GE3 added a dot extending this note.

composition: Op. 31, Scherzo in B♭ minor

..

In A (→FC) there are no naturals before the crotchets ending the five-note groups (a2, a1 and a). Through a proof copy of FE, this mistake also found its way to EE1 (in FE the accidentals were added in the last phase of proofreading). The naturals are also present in GE and EE2 (→EE3).

..

The visible traces of changes prove that two identical Terzverschreibung errors were committed in FE – b1 instead of d2 on the last semiquaver of the 2nd beat of each of those bars.

b. 543

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

..

In GE1, the first crotchet is a b1-b2 octave. This patent mistake could have been committed in FE, in which, however, Chopin corrected it in the last phase of proofreading. The mistake in GE1 was corrected already in GE2 (→GE3).

No upper voice in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

Upper voice in GE3

..

The missing marking of the top voice is obviously an inaccuracy of notation. In FE, the slur, placed high above that figure, suggests that stems and beam were planned here, but were overlooked by the engraver, perhaps due to the need to correct an erroneous note (one can see traces of removal of d3 at the beginning of the 3rd beat of the bar). The top voice was completed in GE3
