c4 repeated in FE

c4 tied in GE, EE, FED & FEH
..

The absence of the tie of c4 must be a mistake (probably of the engraver of FE, although Chopin's oversight also cannot be excluded), which is proved by:

  • a tie in analogous bar 175;
  • ties of g3 and e3 in the next two motifs, being a slightly modified repetition of the first one;
  • ties added in two pupil's copies bearing clear traces of this movement of the Concerto having been developed during lessons with Chopin.

The tie was added both in GE and EE.

In bar 534, FEH repeated, this time without mistake, the fingering of exposition (see bars 179-184). In an abbreviated form, the fingering was repeated also in bar 535 and 538.

The fingering of FEH in bar 536 repeats indications of analogous bar 181. In turn, in FEH the figure from bar 537 was not provided with fingering in exposition; the digits written in the discussed bar are totally compliant with Fontana's fingering in EE in bar 182.
