rall. - - till 6th quaver in FE

rall. in GE

No indication in EE

rall. - - - till end of bar suggested by the editors

The GE and EE versions most probably resulted from the engravers' inaccuracies or mistakes. According to us, the FE version is also inaccurate, even if it corresponds to the [A] notation, as it is hard to imagine that the absence of the last dashes could be indicating a sophisticated agogic nuance. Therefore, in the main text we suggest leading the dashes marking the range of the rallentando to the end of the bar, in accordance with the natural performance manner of figuration in this context.
