b. 270-272

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

4 accents in A & GE2

3 accents in GE1

3 accents in FE

4 accents in EE

..

The omission of the 2nd accent in bar 272 in GE1 (→FE) must be an oversight. The accents in FE are placed inaccurately – the second one in bar 270 can be interpreted to apply to the 7th quaver, whereas the sign in bar 272 was placed under the 3rd note in the bar. In EE the 2nd accent in bar 272 was added, yet it was placed under the 1st note of the triplet, analogously to the one in bar 270. Both remaining accents were arbitrarily changed to vertical ones.

b. 278-280

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

4 accents in A & GE2

3 accents in GE1

4 accents in FE

4 accents in EE

..

The omission of the last accent in bar 280 in GE1 must be a mistake. The accent was added in FE, yet it was placed inaccurately, as a result of which it is uncertain whether it applies to the 2nd or the 1st quaver of the triplet (the 1st accent in bar 278 in FE is even more inaccurate; we interpret it to apply to the 1st quaver in the bar). In EE, three out of four accents were put a quaver earlier, on the 1st or 7th note in the bar, which is a mistake.

b. 285-289

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

cresc. - - from bar 285 in A & GE2

cresc. in bars 285 & 287 in GE1 (→FEEE)

cresc. - - [ - ] from bar 285 suggested by the editors

cresc. - - [ - ] from bar 287, our alternative suggestion

..

In the main text we give the cresc. written in bar 285 in A and extended by dashes to the end of bar 289 (we suggest to extend the dashes to the end of bar 290 so that they lead to a natural point, which in this case is  in bar 291). The repetition of the indication present in GE1 (→FEEE) in bar 287, unjustified in this context, signalises a possible mistake. An alternative suggestion is based on a less likely assumption that Chopin, while proofreading GE1, wanted to move  to bar 287, but the proofreading was implemented only partially.

b. 317

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

leggieramente in A & GE2

leggiermente in GE1, contextual interpretation

leggieremente in FE

leggiero in EE

..

In the main text we adopt the newer form of this adverb, introduced in GE1 (we correct the erroneous 'o' at the end of the word to an 'e').

b. 324

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

 in A & GE2

No sign in GE1 (→FEEE)

..

The missing  hairpin in GE1 (→FEEE) is most probably a result of the engraver's oversight. The sign was restored in GE2.
