b. 96-97

composition: Op. 24 No. 2, Mazurka in C major

A wedge and a slur in A

A slur in GE1 (→FEEE)

A dot and a slur in GE2 (→GE3)

..

On the 2nd and the 3rd beat of the bar in the main text we give the articulation marks (a wedge and a slur) written in A. Despite the clear notation of A,  the staccato sign was omitted from GE1 (→FEEE) and the beginning of the slur placed right above the crotchet b1. The slurring error was corrected in GE2 (→GE3) and staccato marked again, this time with a dot.

b. 96

composition: Op. 24 No. 2, Mazurka in C major

A possible reading of the slur of A (→GEFEEE)

Contextual interpretation of the slur of  A

..

The extent of the slur is not quite clear in A. The interpretation adopted in GE (→FEEE) may be considered possible, but in the editors' opinion a longer slur, reaching the crotchet on the 2nd beat, is far more probable.

b. 97

composition: Op. 24 No. 2, Mazurka in C major

No indication in A (→GEFEEE1EE2)

in EE3

..

EE3 has più added in bar 97, probably by analogy to bars 13 and 45. In our opinion, the absence of that indication cannot be considered Chopin's oversight in this particular case, especially that  A  has visible traces of removal of an element of notation there; therefore we do not include the addition of EE3 in our main text.

b. 98

composition: Op. 24 No. 2, Mazurka in C major

The version of A (→GE)

Chopin's correction in FE (→EE)

The editors' proposition

..

The version of A (→GE) here is identical with bars 14 and 46. Chopin changed it when proofing FE (→EE), introducing a varied version of the melodic motif. However, the initial version of the slurring was left unchanged, which is an oversight of the engraver, or of Chopin himself. As the corrected version of the motif is the same as the one that Chopin used in bars 18 and 50, in our main text we propose a slur modelled on Chopin's slurring in those bars.

b. 99

composition: Op. 24 No. 2, Mazurka in C major

A wedge in A

Absence of any sign in GE1 (→FEEE1EE2)

A dot in GE2 (→GE3)

An accent in EE3

..

The evident staccato sign in A, which in our opinion should be read as a wedge, was omitted from GE1 (→FEEE1EE2). A dot was added in GE2 (→GE3) to rectify that error. EE3 has an accent added instead, probably by analogy to bars 15 and 19. We base our main text on A.
