Sixth in EE & GC (→GE)

Octave in FE

The c2-a2 sixth adopted for the main text based on EE and GC (→GE) harmonically conludes the passage and is a melodic connector between c2 sounds in bars 529 and 534. The authenticity of the a1-a2 octave in FE is not certain - the engraver's mistake seems probable here.
