b. 164-166

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

No marks in FE (→EE)

Staccato dot in bar 164 in GE

3 dots suggested by the editors
..

The bass notes are provided with staccato dots both in strictly analogous bars 156-158 and similar bars 152-154 and 160-162. In this situation, the absence of dots in the discussed bars must be considered an oversight, since there is no doubt that the places are to be performed in the same manner (cf. similarly structured bars 456-471 in the 3rd mov. of the Concerto in E Minor, Op. 11). In GE, only the first dot was added, in bar 164.
