b. 145-146

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

..

GC and FE1 (→FE2→FE3) lack seven naturals before the notes, which were previously already correctly written in another octave. These patent inaccuracies do not impede the interpretation and they were completed in the subsequent sources to a varied extent. It is only GE that has the correct text. Similarly in the next bars.

b. 145-155

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt II

..

In the sources based directly on [A] there are no naturals raising c to c – in GC in bars 145 and 147, in FE1 in bar 147. These patent inaccuracies were corrected in GE and FE2, so that all the remaining sources include the correct text. Similarly in bars 153 and 155, although there and in FE the second  was added only in FE4.

b. 145

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

..

None of the sources includes the correct notation of accidentals, although omissions do not impede the interpretation. In A there is no  raising d1 to d1 on the 4th quaver (it is also absent before the 7th quaver) and d2 to d2 at the end of the group of demisemiquavers. In GE (→FE) the last sign was added and a  before d on the 6th quaver was repeated, whereas GE2 removed the superfluous  before the second b2. EE is closest to the correct notation, in which the only inaccuracy, perhaps resulting from a different approach to such situations, is a missing  before d1 on the 7th quaver – a  already appeared in this bar before a note at this pitch, yet in another clef (on the 4th quaver).

b. 146

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

..

In A (→GE→FE) there is no  raising d2 to d2. The patent inaccuracy was corrected in EE, adding also a cautionary  before c2.
