 in A and GE2 (→GE3)

GE1 (→FE)

..

In our main text we give the unambiguous text of A. The inaccurate notation of GE1 (→FE) resulted in a clearly erroneous notation of EE. In GE2 (→GE3) the erroneous placement of the  sign was corrected.

The slurs of A (interpretation in context)
 

The slur of  GE1 (→FE→EE)

The slurs of GE2 (→GE3)
..

The slur in A, despite its reaching quite far to the left towards the 1st crotchet, definitely begins from embracing the chord on the 2nd crotchet. Still, in GE (→FE→EE) the slur begins on the 1st crotchet. The result of corrections halfway through bar 30 is not obvious at the first glance and  GE1 (→FE→EE) do not end the slur at that point. A more detailed analysis of the notation reveals that Chopin divided the original slur, which was probably already noticed in GE2 (→GE3).

b. 32

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

 in A and GE2 (→GE3)

GE1 (→FE→EE)
..

 in A is placed under the 2nd crotchet. In GE1 (→FE→EE) it was placed under the 3rd crotchet, which is probably a mistake that resulted from the application of the pedalling pattern of the neighbouring bars. In GE2 (→GE3) the notation of A was restored.
