b. 30

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

No hairpins in A (→GEFEEE)

The editors' proposition

..

Comparison with analogous bars  22, 26 and 34 reveals that the omission of hairpins   in A (→GEFEEE) may be due to Chopin's inattention. Therefore we suggest adding the mark.

A probable reading of   in A

GE (→FEEE)

..

The extent of the hairpin mark  in A is unclear; the lower arms reaches the 3rd beat of the bar, while the upper one only the second beat. We consider the upper arm to be a reliable indication, and we give that length in the main text. In GE (→FEEE) the mark is even shorter, which definitely fails to reflect Chopin's intention.

GE1 (→FEEE)

..

The extent of the hairpin mark  in A may give rise to certain doubts due to inexact alignment of the L.H. part under the R.H. part. The engraver of GE1 (→FEEE) probably matched the beginning of the hairpin with the L.H. crotchets, which was an evident mistake later corrected in GE2 (→GE3). Applied to the R.H., the hairpin mark in A doubtless refers to the quaver figure on the 3rd beat of the bar, despite the fact that it begins a little earlier.

A dot in A (→GEFE)

No dot in EE

..

The missing staccato dot for F in EE is doubtless an error. Cf. bars 21-24.

 in A (→GE2GE3)

GE1 (→FEEE)

..

The extent of the hairpins   in A is very clear. Nonetheless, in GE1 (→FEEE) the mark was stretched over the entire bar. That inaccuracy was corrected in GE2 (→GE3).
