b. 143

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

..

GE1 (→FE1) has G as the 1st quaver. Chopin corrected this mistake in the proofreading of FE2 (→EE). The correct version was introduced also in GE2.

The cautionary naturals before the f1-f2 octave are only in FE (→EE), added most probably by Chopin.

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).
