..
Change of the font of the accents in bars 151 and 153 is a characteristic manner of EE. Similarly in further analogous bars. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions |

The clearly long accent in A was reproduced in GE (→FE) as a short one, whereas EE changed it to a vertical one. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE |

The missing staccato dots next to the bass notes in bars 156 and 158-160 are certainly an oversight of the engraver of GE1 (→FE→EE) – the signs in A are very small and sometimes put quite far from the notes. GE2 added dots only in bars 156 and 159. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions |

..
In bars 159-164, differentiation between long and short accents is unclear in A, yet the first three signs are evidently bigger or longer than the next two (see also bar 164). Since in an analogous fragment in the recapitulation (bars 309-314) the differences are entirely clear, in the main text we give here long accents too. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in A |

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt I
..
The missing staccato dots in bar 162 in GE1 (→FE→EE) are certainly an oversight of the engraver of GE1 (cf. bars 156-160). Similarly, the absence of dots in bar 164 in A is also to be regarded as an oversight – in this bar, the last on the page, Chopin overlooked all articulation markings in the L.H. (dots and slurs). Dots were added in GE1 (→FE→EE); however, they were added also in the previous bar (163), which, as it seems, was not compliant with Chopin's intentions (cf. bar 161 and the note on slurs in bar 159). However, this does not exclude Chopin's participation in the proofreading, since the composer could have changed the concept of markings. According to us, it is a mistake at the time of performing the proofreading or an editorial revision that are more likely. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Authentic corrections of GE , Inaccuracies in A |
