hairpin in A, contextual interpretation |
||
It is unclear whether the mark in A is a diminuendo or an accent (long). In GE it was reproduced as an accent, longer than the short ones in bar 153, yet shorter than the majority of typical long accents. In the main text we provide a hairpin due to the in analogous bar 157. Diminuendo is also present in bar 87 and is a natural choice in the endings of all the related four-bar sections whose melodic shape is of a clearly ascending and descending nature.
