b. 102
No dots in AI |
||
Staccato in both hands suggested by the editors |
In the final version of the ending of the Mazurka, Chopin marked the L.H. fifths with staccato dots. However, there are no doubts that it is also the R.H. crotchets that are supposed to be performed in this way, hence the absence of dots for the R.H. chords is either a result of carelessness of the engraver of FE1 or an oversight by Chopin. In the main text we add dots; a respective addition was also introduced in GE2 (→GE3).
If the initial version of the ending is chosen, the variant with dots shall not apply.
