Issues : Last key signature sign
b. 45-57

composition: Op. 50 No. 3, Mazurka in C♯ minor
..
On the basis of AI one can see that Chopin hesitated whether to write the B major section (from b. 45) using a 4- or a 5-sharp key signature. It is proven by the following actions: a new key signature was added in b. 45 and 57, then the sharps of A and a1 were removed in both places, while the sharps before the a notes in b. 50 and 52 (as well as in 61 and 74) were crossed out and then reintroduced. category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Chopin's hesitations , Last key signature sign , Corrections of AI |

JC has a cautionary before the 4th semiquaver, a1. In the light of the currently binding rules, a sign in this position is superfluous. category imprint: Source & stylistic information |

In FE (→GE1→GE2), there is no accidental before the 4th demisemiquaver before last. The missing must be a mistake in this context, probably repeated after [A], since such inaccuracies in the notation of accidentals are typical of Chopin. The sharp was added in EE and in GE3; in the latter, another defect of Chopin's notation was removed – the unnecessarily repeated before a2 in the 3rd group of semiquavers. The sharp in the discussed place could have been added in FEH – see the adjacent note. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE , Accidentals in different octaves , GE revisions , Cautionary accidentals , Omission of current key accidentals , Last key signature sign , Errors repeated in GE |

In A (→GE1→FE) there is a totally unjustified before the top note of the octave (d). In GE2 the superfluous sign was removed, while in EE a was added also next to the bottom note. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , GE revisions , Cautionary accidentals , Last key signature sign |
