b. 115-116

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

e1 tied in A (→GE)

e1 repeated in FE (→EE)
..

Reproducing the tie of e1 as a motivic slur of e1-c1 is undoubtedly a mistake of the engraver of FE (→EE).

b. 116-117

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

Slur to sixth in bar 117 in A & GE2

Slur to end of bar 116 in GE1 (→FE→EE)
..

Division of the slur at the bar line is a typical arbitrary decision of GE1 (→FE→EE). Moreover, a staccato dot was overlooked in bar 117, which completely distorted the image of phrasing in this fragment. In GE2 the slur was led to the quaver in bar 117, in accordance with A.

Fingering written into FED

No teaching fingering
..

The fingering added in FED corresponds to Chopin indications given in an analogous situation in the next bar already in A (→GE→FE→EE).

b. 117

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

Staccato dot in A & GE2

No mark in GE1 (→FE→EE)
..

The missing staccato dot is an oversight of GE1 (→FE→EE). See also bars 116-117.

b. 117-118

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

..

None of the sources returned b1 in bar 117 and b2 in bar 118, which is a patent oversight. In turn, EE added cautionary flats before the next semiquaver in both bars, b2 and b3 respectively. We include the second of the signs in the main text.
