b. 8

composition: Op. 24 No. 4, Mazurka in B♭ minor

..

The accidental before the last crotchet of the L.H. is placed inaccurately in A, so it is not clear to which of the lower notes of the chord it was supposed to refer. Most arguments point to the reading of those notes as g-b flat. This is the version given by all the first editions.
