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

Wedges in A

Dots in GE (→FE→EE)
..

The staccato signs visible in A in bars 36 and 44 should be considered wedges, although they are not so clear as in bars 38 and 46. In GE (→FE→EE) they were reproduced as dots. Cf. the remark to bar 1.

The slur of A (→GE)

The corrected slur of FE (→EE)
..

The slur in A (→GE) begins on the 1st note of bar 37. Correcting FE (→EE), Chopin moved the beginning of the  slur one crotchet earlier. Cf. similar slur corrections in bar 18 and analogous bars, and also in the Mazurka in C Op. 24 no. 2, bars 58-59 & analog.

In bars 36 and 44 in A, the asterisk  is written  between the 2nd and the 3rd crotchet. In GE1 (→FE→EE) it was moved and placed under the nearest chord: on the 3rd beat in bar 36 and on the 2nd beat in bar 44. In GE2 (→GE3) the pedalling was made uniform, and the  moved under the 3rd crotchet.
