composition: Op. 30, Mazurka in D♭ major

..

In FC Chopin deleted all three L.H. chords written by Fontana and replaced them with new ones. The reason was a mistake by the copyist, who wrote g as the bottom note of the chords thrice (instead of f).

Staccato dots in FC (→GE)

No marks in FE (→EE)

..

In the main text we include the staccato dots under the bass notes in bars 31-32, 35-36 and 39, visible in FC (→GE). The fact that the marks correlate with the pedal markings added by Chopin allows us to assume that it was also him that wrote the dots.

All pedal markings in these bars are written in FC in Chopin's hand, which means that the same markings in FE were added in the stage of proofreading this edition or to the basis thereof.

..

In these bars the pedalling in FC was added by Chopin. As it is also present in FE, Chopin most probably added it later also while proofreading FE. In this entire theme (bars 33-64) the pedalling in the basis for FC, that is [A], was marked only in 4 bars – bars 33-34 and 39-40.

As in bars 5-13 (and with similar doubts), the dynamic markings at the beginning of the subsequent four-bar sections (bars 37, 41 and 45) were entered into FC probably by Chopin.
