The fingering digits are written in FED in such a way that they can refer both to the right and to the left hand. According to us, the first possibility is much more likely – someone working on the 1st mov. of the Concerto with Chopin would not have had problems with the fingering of a short fragment of the chromatic scale. In turn, in the less typical figuration in the R.H., an indication could have warned of, e.g. using the 3-2 fingering (to avoid the 1st finger on a black key). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources |

In the main text, we suggest adding slurs over the characteristic, two-part figure in the R.H., following the interpretation of the slur in bar 321. category imprint: Editorial revisions |

In GE1 (→GE2), the arpeggiated chord in the L.H. is an erroneous crotchet. The mistake was rectified in GE3. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE , GE revisions |

According to us, placing the accent under the a2 semiquaver is inexplicable from the musical point of view and is most probably a mistake of the engraver of FE, who put the mark a semiquaver too early. In the main text, we move the accent over the crotchet in the L.H., which, judging from the next two similar bars, should be accented. Such an interpretation of this mark was adopted also in GE3. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |

The presence of wedge only for the second time (in bar 321), as it is in FE (→EE), is to be considered an inaccuracy, according to us. Chopin put the mark in this bar perhaps due to the missing hand transfer, but even then, it would not mean that he envisaged a different articulation for the 1st quaver in bar 320. However, most probably, the difference came into being by accident, as a result of inadvertence of Chopin himself or of the engraver. Taking that into account, in the main text we add a wedge in bar 320. An overlooked wedge also in bar 321 is most probably a mistake of GE. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Errors in GE |
