b. 304

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

We add a cautionary  to e1 in the main text.

issues: Omitted correction of an analogous place

b. 305

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

Grace notes A-B in GE & EE

Grace notes A-B in FE
..

The version of FE most probably resulted from an oversight of the copyist or of the engraver. The sharp was added in EE, probably after the version of b. 46.

Unlike in previous analogous bars, in this case the wavy lines following the  marks are also absent in FE, which must be an oversight. In the main text we add wavy lines, as was already done in EE.

b. 307

Chord without b1 in GE & FE (→EE1)

Chord with b1 in EE2
..

The chord with b1 in EE2 (→EE3) is an arbitrary revision, most probably resulting from a comparison with b. 48 and 281, in which that note is present in the first chord in all sources (probably by mistake).

b. 308-309

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

Without d in L.H. in GE

3 d in L.H. in FE (→EE)
..

Like in b. 23-24 and analogous, in the main text we follow FE, proofread by Chopin, in which he added three d notes in the L.H. part: on the 1st and 3rd beats of b. 308 and on the 1st beat of b. 309.
