b. 41

composition: Op. 24 No. 1, Mazurka in G minor

Without a slur in A (→GE-FE→EE)

The editors' suggestion
..

We suggest adding a slur following the pattern found in analogous bars, as we see no reason for the omission of that mark. Cf. bars 33-34 and 43-44.

 The slur of A (→GE→FE→EE)

The editors' suggestion
..

We extend the slur that in A (→GE→FE→EE) begins only in bar 45; in doing so, we follow Chopin's correction of the slur in similar bars in 36-37 in FE.

In A, the hairpins lead to the next bar. In GE (→FE→EE) they only reach the 3rd crotchet of the bar.
