b. 432

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

..

In bar 432, on a new line of text, there is no ending of the slur started in the previous bar in FE. In GE and EE, the slur was prolonged accordingly. In FE, one can see that the discussed place initially contained a shorter slur, from the 2nd semiquaver to g1. Therefore, the target slur, compliant with the slur in the R.H., was probably meant to replace the markings that FE feature in bars 423-424.

b. 434

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

Slur from quaver in FE (→GE1GE2)

Slur from semiquavers in EE & GE3

..

The range of the slurs in the left and right hands differs in FE (→GEGE2), which means that one of them is most probably inaccurate. A comparison with similar bars suggests that it is the slur in the L.H., which we adjust to the slur in the R.H. in this situation. An identical change was introduced in EE and GE3.

b. 436

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

Wedge in FE

2 wedges in GE1 (→GE2) & EE

2 dots in GE3

..

The missing wedge in the L.H. part is probably an oversight. Admittedly, we considered the wedge in bar 419, present only in the part of one of the hands, to be probably erroneous, yet in the case of the discussed bar there are not as many analogous situations allowing for comparisons (only bar 192), which leaves us without grounds to question the wedge in the R.H. featured in the sources. The accuracy of the change of wedges to dots in GE3 cannot be excluded – wedges do not appear among the staccato marks used in this theme by Chopin; nevertheless, according to us, it is not a sufficient argument to modify the version of the principal source.

b. 443

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

No indication in FE (→EE)

Viol. in GE

..

The addition introduced in GE, although most probably arbitrary (cf. bar 454), is justified here – it is present in all sources in analogous bar 199.

b. 444

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

No slur in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

Slur in GE3

Same slur as our suggestion

..

In the main text, we add a slur with which Chopin would generally provide this motif in analogous situations both in the piano and the orchestral parts (violins I). Such an addition was introduced already in GE3.
