Publisher: Breitkopf & Härtel
Date: ca 1862
Plate number: 7714
Title: Trois Mazourkas
Dedication: Madame la Comtesse Laure Czosnowska

Wn2 revised the text of GE1, correcting various errors and inaccuracies, sometimes also those taken over from FE1. Below are examples of such corrections:

  • an attempt was made to standardize the inconsistent slurs FE1 by extending the slur at the turn of bars 3-4,
  • isolated staccato dot in bar 40 was removed,
  • a slur overlooked in GE1 was added in bar 58,
  • one of the slurs was removed at the turn of bars 79-80,
  • staccato dots were added in the R.H. in bar 102.

In GE2, cautionary accidentals were added in some places, e.g. naturals before e1 at the beginning of bars 3 and 5 before E,  before d2 and  before e2 in bar 25.
