In Atut, the fact of beginning the slur from the 2nd semiquaver, although it was then repeated in bar 47, seems to be an inaccuracy of notation. Such a notation would suggest that the 1st semiquaver of the tremolando should be separated, as far as the articulation is concerned, which is inconvenient from the pianistic point of view. Due to this reason, in the main text we give the interpretation adopted in FE (→GE,EE). In turn, the literal interpretation of Atut has its perks if we consider the slur to be a phrase mark – it graphically underlines the motif of the top voice, b2-a
2.
See b. 46-47
