con anima in bar 61 in EE
..

In EE the indication con anima appears only in bar 61. This is certainly the result of planning out the musical text in such a way that bar 61 is the first bar on a new page. For the same reason, this solution may also be recommended for texts created in our system.

The hairpins   in A may be read and interpreted in a number of ways. This is so because the beginning of the mark was drawn too vigorously and its ends are of unequal length. The versions of GE1 (→FE) and GE2 (→GE#) present two attempts to decipher the notation of A. The hairpins   in EE are probably a distorted accent.

No marking in A or GE3

 in GE1 (→FE, GE2)

 in EE
..

In GE1 (→FE, GE2), a  was printed before G flat in the L.H. This is an error, probably resulting from the mistaken reading of the letter 'p' from . In EE this erroneous marking was placed above the note and in GE3 – removed.
