FE (→EE)

GE
..

The version of GE, contrary to the orchestral part of FEorch (→GEorch) – in the last chord in bar 338, bassoon I, violas, oboe II and flute II do not have a b (in various octaves), but a c​​​​​​​, while in the 1st chord in bar 339, violins II, clarinets and oboe II have a f1(2) – is almost certainly completely erroneous. The traces visible in FE prove that those mistakes were originally committed in that edition, yet they were corrected in the last phase of proofreading.

F1 tied in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

F1 repeated in GE3
..

In FE (→GE1→GE2), the tie of F1 is present only in bar 169 (at the end of the line). EE corrected the patent defect, whereas GE3 completely omitted the tie, which is probably a mistake.

..

In the L.H. part, there are erroneous c​​​​​​​2-b1 semiquavers in GE1. A similar mistake was present also in FE; however, it was corrected therein, probably in the last phase of proofreading. The subsequent GE contain the correct text.

b in FE (→EE) & GE3

d1 in GE1 (→GE2)
..

The version of GE1 (→GE2), distorting the sequence of bass (implemented by cellos and double basses), must be erroneous. However, the traces of proofreading visible in FE prove that it was the engraver of this edition that committed a mistake, yet in GE1 the note was revised by adding an admittedly overlooked ​​​​​​​, while in FE (→EE) it was moved to the right pitch. The correct version was introduced also in GE3.

d3 in FE (→GE)

e3 in EE & FEJ
..

In FE, the second quaver in the R.H. is inaccurately printed – the notehead is actually at the pitch of e3, yet it is missing the ledger line that crosses it, as a result of which it can be interpreted as a d​​​​​​​3. The missing ledger line was added in FEJ; EE also contain the correct version with e3.
