b. 172

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

Wedge in A

No mark in GE1

Dot in FE (→EE) & GE2

..

The distinct wedge over the 1st chord written in A was overlooked in GE1. When proofreading FE (→EE), Chopin restored the staccato sign, yet this time in the form of a dot. The version, being the latest, should be adopted in the main text, if it were not for doubts whether the sign written by Chopin was reproduced correctly. Errors in interpretation of Chopin wedges would be very frequent in first editions – cf. e.g. the Etude in E major, Op. 10 No. 11, bars 2-14 or 16-23. Therefore, we leave the wedge as the undoubtedly authentic and generally compliant with the nature of the Chopin proofreading, whose main objective was to restore the overlooked staccato sign.
GE2 added a dot here, same as in the previous bar

b. 172

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

4 short accents in A

2 short accents in GE1 (→FE)

2 vertical accents in EE

3 short accents in GE2

..

The missing one or two accents in the L.H. are certainly a result of mistakes of the engraver of GE1 (→FEEE) and the reviser of GE2. The change of the type of accents in EE is a routine revision in this edition.

b. 174

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

Dot & long accent in A

No marks in GE1 (→FEEE)

Dot & short accent in GE2

..

The missing staccato dot over the F quaver and long accent after  are almost certainly oversights of the engraver of GE1. Both signs were added in GE2, although the characteristic Chopin  combination was not reproduced in accordance with the notation of A.

In the main text we give the wedge written in A. The versions of the editions are either erroneous – in GE1 (→FEEE) the sign was overlooked – or inaccurate (the dot in GE2).
