2 slurs, 2nd to f1 in A, literal reading

Continuous slur to f1 in GE (→FE,IE) & EE2

No slur in EE1

Continuous slur to e1 suggested by the editors

The division of the slur in A most probably resulted from the care for correct notation, with slurs placed on the side of noteheads, which was considered unnecessary and potentially misleading already in GE (→FE,EE,IE). We include this modification in the main text; moreover, we suggest leading the slur to e1, ending this quaver sequence, since similarly shortened slurs are quite common in A – cf. the L.H. slurs in bar 13 and 15, as well as, e.g. mov. IV, bars 28-30 or 195.
The absence of the slur in EE1 is due to the engraver's mistake, corrected in EE2.
