b. 328-331

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

​​​​​​​ in FE (→GE,EE)

Long accents suggested by the editors

..

In the main text, we interpret four  marks in these bars as long accents. Thus, we demonstrate the difference in indications with respect to analogous bars 100-103, in which similar marks are clearly longer and separated with repeated  indications. After all, it is highly likely that different lengths of marks in [A] were not so regular or meaningful, since the Chopinesque  hairpin, unless preceded with a ​​​​​​​ mark, generally also indicates an accent. According to us, Chopin most probably meant both fragments to be performed in the same manner.

b. 328-331

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

No marks in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

Staccato dots in GE3

..

Like in analogous bars 100-103, staccato dots are an arbitrary addition of the revision of GE3. That addition formed a part of a more comprehensive package of editorial measures encompassing performance indications of that Tutti (e.g. staccato dots were added over the repeated g​​​​​​​1 ​​​​​​​semiquavers in bar 333).

b. 335-337

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

No marks in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

Staccato dots in GE3

..

GE3 arbitrarily provided the last quaver in bar 335 and the first two in bars 336-337 with staccato dots (in the latter only in the R.H.).

b. 347

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

Long accent in FE (probable reading→EE)

Short accent in GE1 (→GE2)

​​​​​​​in GE3

​​​​​​​ – our alternative suggestion

..

It is unclear which mark Chopin meant at the beginning of the 2nd half of the bar. In FE, the mark resembles an accent (short or long), yet it cannot be ruled out that it was supposed to be a ​​​​​​​, although certainly not as long as in GE3. A natural performance contains both an accent and diminuendo, which is best conveyed in one mark by a long accent or a slightly different short diminuendo hairpin. A similar problem appears also in bars 390-391.

b. 360

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

No mark in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

Accent in GE3

Same accent suggested by the editors

..

We suggest adding an accent on the 4th quaver in the bar on the basis of a comparison with analogous bar 368. Accentuating thirds gives passages a virtuoso touch and refers to the characteristic rhythm of krakowiak . The accent was added in GE3.
