Slurs in A

FE (→GE,EE)

Our alternative suggestion

The slur in A in the 2nd half of bar 24 undoubtedly reaches the 1st note in bar 25. Also the relevant slur in bar 25 (the last one in the text's line) suggests a continuation in the following bar, in which, however, it does not end. In the editions the first of the slurs was omitted, which is a patent error, while the second embraced only five last semiquavers in bar 25, which is probably the laziest way of interpretation. Due to the changes of slurs and articulation at the beginning of these bars, we suggest two unified slurrings to choose from: longer slurs in the main text (at the same time, it is the most probable interpretation of A) and shorter ones as an additional possibility.
