b. 172

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

Dashes up to last chord in A

No dashes in GE (→FE→EE)
..

Leading crescendo to  in bar 173 seems to be natural, hence in the main text we suggest adding dashes marking the range of this dynamic change. The absence of dashes in the editions is probably a result of an oversight of the engraver of GE1.

b. 172

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

..

In the main text we add cautionary flats before e2(3).

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 (→FE→EE) and the reviser of GE2. The change of the type of accents in EE is a routine revision in this edition.

No sign in sources

[] suggested by the editors
..

The absence of the  sign in this place is undoubtedly Chopin's oversight, which may have been caused by the transition to a new page (the sign would fall at the end of page of A).

b. 174

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

Whole-bar slur in A

Half-bar slurs in GE (→FE→EE)
..

The division of the slur is certainly an arbitrary change of GE (→FE→EE).
