Slurs

b. 38-42

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

Slur ending in A (→GEFEEE)

The editors' suggestion

..

In the sources, the slur in bars 38 and 42 ends above the 2nd quaver of the bar. This is most probably the result of the inaccurate notation of A.

b. 40

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

Slur ending in A

Slur ending in GE (→FEEE)

..

In GE (→FEEE), the slur ends above the 2nd quaver b1, clearly against the notation of A. This is one of the instances of inaccurate reproduction of A in GE1. Cf. the note to bar 6.

b. 44

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

Slur ending in A (→GE1FEEE)

Slur ending in GE2 (→GE3)

..

In GE2 (→GE3), the slur end was moved to the 2nd quaver d2, probably after comparison had been made with the notation of GE1 in the majority of analogous bars. Cf. the note to bar 6.

The note g is not tied in A (→GE)

A tie sustaining g in FE (→EE)

..

In A (→GE) the note is not sustained, and neither is it in five analogous places (bars 15-16, 19-20, 51-52, 99-100 and 103-104). The tie appearing in FE (→EE) may result from Chopin's correction. However, the fact that no similar ties can be found in any of the remaining analogous places makes us also consider other possible explanations. In our opinion, the engraver's error is a probable option.

b. 48

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

..

Visible over the R.H., part in A is a deletion that shortens the slur started in the previous bar. A similar correction can be found in bar 16.
