b. 6-10

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

Hairpin in AI

No sign in A (→GE→FE→EE)
..

Chopin marked the dynamic emphasis on the highest note in bars 6 & 10 with a sign  in AI, and with a marking  in A (→GE→FE→EE). Both markings may be regarded as complimentary, but with the ultimate rhythm of the 1st beat combining them does not seem purposeful. The same applies to bars 30 and 34.

Rhythm and articulation in AI

Rhythm and articulation in A,

no mark
..

In A (→GE→FE→EE), Chopin changed the RH rhythm and articulation of the 1st half of the bar as compared with AI. Identical rhythmic differences also occur in similar bars 10 & 12.

The staccato sign—a wedge in A—was reproduced inaccurately as a dot in GE, and omitted in FE (→EE).
