..

In GE1 (→GE2), bar 390 is the last one in the line of text, which probably caused an inaccuracy in the notation of the slur running from f3 – its ending was overlooked in bar 391. It is also possible that the missing ending of the slur is a side effect of the revision of the pitch of the 1st quaver in bar 391. In GE3, the slur was completely omitted.

Slur in FE (→EE)

No slur in GE

The missing slur in GE is most probably an oversight – the engraver overlooked both elements (the slur and the  hairpin) – present between the staves.

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I

 in FE (→EE)

No sign in GE
..

The missing  in GE could be explained by the possibility that the mark was added in the last proofreading of FE; however, the additional absence of the slur in the L.H. in this bar makes a possible inadvertence of the engraver of GE more likely; the engraver overlooked a certain stage of work here – the elements between the staves, unrelated to the particular notes. See also bar 394.

Lower slur in FE

No lower slur in GE

2 lower slurs in EE
..

The additional little slur at the transition between bars 412 and 413 was probably overlooked in GE – the wedges in these bars were also overlooked. In turn, EE included the little slur and repeated it in bars 413-414; the second time, the top slur was arbitrarily shortened.

No sign in GE

The missing  in GE is most probably an oversight, although it is possible that the hairpin was omitted due to lack of space or an alleged conflict with the ​​​​​​​ mark between the staves.
