b. 171-174

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt I

Slurs to crotchet in A

4-quaver slurs in GE (→FE,EE,IE)

..

The range of the L.H. slurs is not entirely clear in A – the slurs in bars 173-174 can be interpreted as slurs encompassing 4 quavers or reaching the first crotchet. The slurs in bars 171-172 are unambiguous – the first was being extended, while the second certainly reaches the e crotchet, which, however, could have gone unnoticed by the engraver, as the ending of the slur behind the natural partially blends in with the stave, hence it is poorly visible. As there is no reason to differentiate between these slurs, we assume that all reach the crotchet at the beginning of the 2nd half of the bar. The interpretation of the slurs by GE (→FE,EE,IE) can be considered an acceptable variant, since it is compliant with the slurs in the majority of similar motifs, e.g. in bars 97-99, 109-110 or 207-208.

b. 171-172

composition: (Op. 4), Sonata in C minor, Mvt IV

Slur to e1 in A

Slur to d1 in GE (→FE,EE,IE)

..

The A slur clearly reaches the e1 crotchet at the beginning of bar 172. In GE (→EE) the notation is inaccurate – the slur in bar 171, at the end of a line, suggests that it should be continued, yet in a new line, in bar 172, there is no ending thereof. We reproduce it – in accordance with FE and IE – as a slur reaching just d1.

Before the 2nd crotchet, EE1 mistakenly has  instead of , which was corrected in EE2.
