b. 43-44

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

As was the case with b. 17-18, in FE (→EE) the L.H. part octaves (from the 2nd beat of b. 43 to the end of the 1st beat of b. 44) are written in a simplified manner with the use of con 8va.

As was the case with b. 23-24 and analogous, we base the main text on FE, which was proofread by Chopin; we only omit the d note, which was certainly added by mistake to the A-a demisemiquaver in b. 50. That note was also abandoned by EE2 (→EE3), probably on the basis of a comparison with analogous b. 283.

b. 50

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

Two rhythmic errors crept into FE1 here: at the beginning of the bar a dotted quaver and a semiquaver instead of a dotted semiquaver and demisemiquaver (in both parts) and a quaver triplet instead of a semiquaver triplet in the L.H. The latter was corrected in FE2 and EE1, while EE2 (→EE3) corrected both mistakes.

b. 58-59

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

In FE1 there is not a single  raising g to g (in various octaves). The mistake, almost certainly committed by Chopin, was corrected in FE2 and EE with FE2 limiting itself to the g1-g2 octave in b. 58 and L.H. g1 in b. 59. The same applies to b. 291-292.

b. 61-62

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

..

The crotchets visible in the L.H. part at the beginning of b. 61 and 62 in FE1 resulted from the engraver having overlooked a quaver flag or beam. In FE2 and EE1 it was only b. 62 that was corrected, hence in that group of editions it is only EE2 (→EE3) that includes the correct text, compliant with GE1 and analogous b. 294-295. The quaver flag in b. 61 was overlooked in GE2 too.
