b. 5-17

composition: Op. 24 No. 4, Mazurka in B♭ minor

 marks in A

GE1 (→FE→EE)

GE2 (→GE3)
..

In bars 5, 7, 9 and 13, 15 & 17 in GE1 (→FE→EE) the  marks were placed under the 3rd crotchet. This contradicts the notation of A, in which those asterisks were placed earlier, more or less in the middle of the bar. In GE2 (→GE3) the marks were moved even further towards the end of the bar.

composition: Op. 24 No. 4, Mazurka in B♭ minor

A staccato dot in A

The dot missing in  GE (→FE→EE)
..

The lack of the dot in GE (→FE→EE) is probably due to oversight on the part of the engraver.

A wedge in AI and A

A dot in GE (→FE→EE)
..

In bars 5 and 9 all the first editions have staccato dots instead of wedges clearly written in A. Such a characteristic inaccuracy of GE (→FE→EE) occurs throughout the entire Mazurka.
