composition: Op. 30 No. 1, Mazurka in C minor

e1 in FE (→EE)

No note in FC (→GE)

The missing e1 crotchet at the beginning of the bar must be an oversight by Fontana.

b. 7-15

composition: Op. 30 No. 1, Mazurka in C minor

No signs in FE (→EE)

in FC (→GE)
..

The  hairpin in bars 7 and 15 was almost certainly added to FC by Chopin. There is a similar situation in bar 18, 21 and 26 and in bars 28-30 and 43.

b. 7-15

composition: Op. 30 No. 4, Mazurka in C# minor

..

In the main text we add cautionary accidentals – naturals to a1 in bars 7 and 15 and to b1 in bar 13. In FC they were already added by the reviser of GE, who also added a  to a2 in bar 9.

b. 7-8

composition: Op. 63 No. 2, Mazurka in F minor

No fingering in As & EEW

Fingering in FE (→GE)

Fingering written into FES
..

The absence of fingering in EEW must be an oversight. In the main text we give both the fingering printed in FE (→GE) and the preceding pencil addition in FES – the 4th finger on a1, which almost certainly comes from Chopin.
