b. 451

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

Fingering written into FEH

No teaching fingering
..

The fingering, perhaps written during a lesson with Chopin, enables to hold the D​​​​​​​ crotchet in a convenient and firm manner. A similar situation occurs in bar 455.

In the main text, we lead the slur to the last note of the bar as in analogous bars 456, 458 and 460. Such a change was introduced already in GE.

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

Wedge on E in FE (→EE)

Wedge on B1 in GE
..

Moving the wedge to the beginning of bar 453 is a reasonable revision; however, it shall require that the slur combining the E and B1 ​​​​​​​quavers is correct – see the note below.
