The fingerings written by Chopin in FED and FEH are compliant. In the main text, we include the more precise indications of FED.

Bars 288 and 304 are a repetition, modified accordingly, of bars 287 and 303 that precede them. Out of these 4 bars, it is only bar 288 that features the b3 note as the topmost one, which implies a possibility of a mistake. Due to this reason, in the main text we suggest an a3, like in the remaining bars. Such a correction was introduced already in GE3.

..

The middle part of the bar, from the 3rd to the 8th note, is written in FE (→EE) with the use of an octave sign. In GE1 (→GE2), the mark was overlooked, as a result of which a corresponding fragment seems to be written an octave lower. The mistake was rectified in GE3 by moving the notes to the right pitch, like it was written in all editions in analogous bar 304.

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

..

In GE1 (→GE2), the 8th semiquaver is a d2. It is a result of two overlapped mistakes – the missing octave sign (see the previous note) and the Terzverschreibung error, which is confirmed by the comparison with analogous bars 287 and 303-304. The mistakes were corrected in GE3.

d2 in FE (→GE1)

b2 in EE, GE2 (→GE3) & FED
..

The version with d2 as the 10th semiquaver present in FE (→GE1) is almost certainly erroneous. It is proved by the comparison with analogous bars 289 and 305-306 as well as by the correction in FED, indicated probably by Chopin. Corresponding corrections were introduced also in EE and GE2 (→GE3).
