b. 1

composition: Op. 24 No. 3, Mazurka in A♭ major

The dedication in AI

The title and dedication in A (→GE1)

FE and GE2

..

AI is not titled, and the dedication written there differs from the later one that Chopin wrote for the entire opus in A (→GEFEEE). The replacement of 4 Mazurkas with Quatre Mazurkas in FE and GE2 does not change the content of the authentic title from A (→GE1). However, the addition to the title in EE is definitely inauthentic; the English editor used to add the expression Souvenir de la Pologne to each consecutive opus of Chopin's mazurkas.

b. 1-12

composition: Op. 24 No. 3, Mazurka in A♭ major

Slur in AI

More probable reading of slurs in A

Less probable reading of slurs in A (→GEFEEE)

..

The first slur of the Mazurka begins on a bar-line in A, which allows a twofold interpretation. The slur at the end of bar 12 (1a volta) also may be read as encompassing only two quavers or longer.

b. 1-7

composition: Op. 24 No. 3, Mazurka in A♭ major

Long accents in A (→GEFEEE)

No marks in AI

..

AI has no accents for g1 in bars 1, 3 & 7 (a similar situation appears in bar 25, 27 & 31). The discussed bars are among few places in which Chopin's long accents are reproduced quite precisely in GE (→FEEE).

..

The replacement of 4 Mazurkas with Quatre Mazurkas does not change the authentic title. However, the addition to the title in EE is definitely inauthentic; the English editor used to add the expression Souvenir de la Pologne to each consecutive opus of Chopin's Mazurkas. In EE2, the dedication was omitted.

 in A and a likely reading of GE2

 in GE1 (→FEEE) and a possible reading of GE2

No pedal in AI

..

Chopin wrote into A a mark  at the end of the bar, clearly after the 3rd L.H. crotchet. In GE1 (→FEEE) the mark was placed under the 3rd crotchet. The notation in GE2 is unclear: the asterisk is to be found below the last chord, but shifted perceptibly to the right which may be regarded an attempt to better fit the script of A.

AI has no pedal markings becuse of the different L.H. part version.
