In the main text we give the version of GE, which is almost certainly an improvement introduced by Chopin in [A2]. At the beginning of analogous b. 92, the delay was introduced – contrary to a similar procedure in b. 90-91, 94-95 and 98-99 – only just in the phase of proofreading of A1. Therefore, it can be said that the version of GE ends both the improvement and the unification processes of the harmonic course of the final section of the Mazurka. It cannot be ruled out that the absence of a corresponding correction in the discussed bar in A1 is an example of an overlooked correction of an analogous place, which is often encountered in Chopinesque sources. However, we consider the version of A1 to be an almost equal variant, since due to the absence of a corresponding correction in FE, there is no proof that Chopin considered the change in [A2] to have definitively replaced the original version.
