Issues : Different values of chord components

b. 34

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

A (→GE) and EE

..

Both constituents of the third e flat1-g1 have the value of a dotted crotchet in A (→GE). In the proofing of FE the value of the lower note was shortened by removing the dot after e flat1. In EE the corrected version of FE was considered erroneous and a dot was added again. The same situation occurs in the analogous bar 42. The change in FE was probably made upon Chopin's request.
