  b. 148-153

Slurs in A, literal reading

Slurs in A (contextual interpretation→GEFE,EE,IE)

Pianistically and musically speaking, it is obvious what slurs should be used in bars 147-153, mostly build of three-note motifs; it is confirmed by the group of several dozen A slurs, undoubtedly encompassing entire motifs. Nevertheless, in A we can find a number of inaccuracies in the remaining figures:

  • overlooked slurs – in bar 148 the first one in the L.H., in bar 152 the second one in the R.H., in bar 153 all three (we discuss the issue concerning the slur over the octave sequence beginning at the end of this bar separately);
  • L.H. slurs encompassing two out of three quavers – at the end of bar 148 and 149 and in the middle of bar 151 and 152;
  • slurs concerning the entire motif yet too short on one or the other side and sometimes on both sides, e.g. the last L.H. slur in bar 152.

In the main text we standardise the slurs concerning these motifs in accordance with what was already carried out in GE (→FE,EE,IE).
