b. 5-12
Generally, in the sources we encounter 3 variants of slurs within bars 5-12:
- two slurs: the 1st to the end of bar 10, whereas the beginning of the 2nd slur from bar 11 in AO, AK, AG (→CY)
- two slurs: the 1st to the end of bar 8, whereas the beginning of the 2nd slur from bar 9 in AR
- one slur in AE (→CX): in the autograph, one can see a binding between two slurs, at the transition between bars 7 and 8.
CC features two slurs written in bars 5-8 only. The first spans bars 5-7, whereas the second - bar 8. It may be a result of such an interpretation of the aforementioned binding of two slurs in AE by the copyist of a base text, unknown to us, of CC (the closest to the notation of AE).
