FE1 has an a1-c2 third on the 1st quaver. It is a perfect example of an unfinished proofreading, where the correct note was printed without having removed the erroneous one. The mistake was corrected in FE2 (→EE). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE , Terzverschreibung error , Partial corrections |

In GE1 the semiquaver opening the characteristic main motif of this movement of the Concerto, recalled here, is A-f. This patent mistake, corrected both in FE (→EE) and in GE2, is probably a result of an unfinished proofreading of A, erroneously printed in this place – the correct note was added, yet the erroneous one was not removed. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE , Partial corrections |

In the editors' opinion, the c2-e2 third in FE (→GE1,EE) is most probably a mistake of the so-called "partial proofreading" – while proofreading the erroneous c2, the engraver added the correct note (e2) but did not remove the erroneous c2. The arbitrary version of GE2 makes it possible to avoid an unjustified pianistic complication. However, it is highly unlikely that it could have corresponded to Chopin's intention. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Errors in FE , GE revisions , Partial corrections |

The additional must be a mistake of the engraver of GE (perhaps an unfinished correction – following the erroneously printed mark on the 3rd beat of the bar, the correct indication was added, yet the wrong one was not removed. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , Partial corrections |

b. 618-619

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I
..
The lack of autograph impedes the unravelling of the actual meaning of two ties present in FE (→GE,EE). In a similar melodic and rhythmic context, appearing in Chopin's pieces on a number of occasions, a note falling on a strong beat of bar is always played (repeated) – cf. e.g. bars 220-221 and 571-572 or 606-609. Therefore, it seems highly likely that in this case Chopin also wanted to repeat a1 at the beginning of bar 619. Traces of corrections visible in FE in bar 619 point to misunderstandings at the time of implementing proofreading as a possible reason for the unintentionally left tie of that note. category imprint: Editorial revisions issues: Partial corrections |
