b. 3-4

composition: Op. 50 No. 1, Mazurka in G major

G repeated in Afrag

G tied in A1 (→FE→EE) & GE
..

It is difficult to say whether the missing tie of G is an actual variation of the text (original?), an oversight or an element overlooked as a result of abandoning the work on this manuscript.

b. 4

composition: Op. 50 No. 1, Mazurka in G major

No mark in Afrag & A1 (→FE→EE)

Staccato dot in GE
..

In the main text we give the staccato dot with which Chopin provided the 1st chord of the bar in [A2] (→GE). There is a similar situation in b. 28 and 60.

b. 4-28

composition: Op. 50 No. 1, Mazurka in G major

No markings in Afrag & A1 (→FE→EE)

Pedalling in GE
..

The addition of pedalling in b. 4 and 28 is most probably one of a few improvements introduced by Chopin to [A2] (→GE).

b. 4

composition: Op. 50 No. 1, Mazurka in G major

No arpeggio signs in Afrag & FE1 (→EE)

Arpeggio sign at first chord in A1

Arpeggio sign at 2nd chord in FE2

Both arpeggio signs in GE
..

The arpeggio mark written in A1 before the first chord was overlooked in FE (→EE), yet an arpeggio mark was added before the 2nd chord in the proofreading of FE2. In the main text we include both arpeggios, in accordance with GE.

b. 5

composition: Op. 50 No. 1, Mazurka in G major

Wedge in Afrag

Staccato dot in A1 (→FE→EE) & GE
..

The wedge in Afrag is probably the original version (or simply an inaccuracy).
