Slurs in A

Slurs in GE

Slurs in FE (→EE)
..

In A, the slur in bar 58 begins above the bar line, which may suggest its intended earlier beginning. This is most probably the reason why it runs from the last chord of bar 57 in GE (→FE→EE). However, in the editors' opinion, in this context it is much more likely that the slur is one of those too-widely written slurs frequently found in the autograph of the Mazurkas Op. 24. Cf. bar 60.

In FE (→EE) that slur and the next one are placed under the chords.

Pedalling in A

An additional  mark in GE1

FE (→EE)

GE2 (→GE3)
..

A has got one pedal mark for two bars. In GE1 an additional  appears in bar 62, which must have resulted from the unnecessary application of Chopin's indication to repeat the bar to the pedal mark as well. That incomplete notation was supplemented in FE (→EE) by adding  in bar 61. In GE2 (→GE3) the faulty mark from the beginning of bar 62 was removed.
