Issues : Errors in FE

b. 47-48

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

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. 53

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

Without a dot in A (→GE)

A dot in FE (→EE)

..

The third staccato dot in this bar, appearing in FE (→EE), is most probably a mistake. Notes on which short slurs begin are contrasted in A with staccato-marked notes ending the slurred crotchet pairs. The FE dot would disturb that regularity, with the detriment to the clarity of the entire transition section (bars 52-56).

 An accent in A (→GE)

No accent in FE (→EE)

..

The accent that falls on the 3rd beat in A (→GE) was omitted from FE (→EE), probably accidentally left out by the engraver.
