Missing from EE and FE is the bass clef restoring the bass register within the system after the treble clef on the lower stave (the last bar to which the treble clef applies is bar 283). However, the structure of the figuration in bar 286 and its graphic layout make the misreading of the text in this and the following bars practically impossible. In GC, bar 284 opens a new page and the bass clef is written there at the beginning of the line. In GE, the bass clef was added at the end of the line, in bar 284. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies , Inaccuracies in GC |

In GC (→GE) the slurs end in bars 298 and 306, respectively. For our main text we take the consistent slurring of EE and FE which we consider more grounded in the sources and more justified from the musical point of view. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GC |

The slur in GC is clearly too long, especially at its end, which was corrected in GE. For the main text we have adopted complying versions of EE and FE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Inaccuracies in GC |

The slurs in the sources exemplify the figuration beginning in RH on the third beat in b. 315 and in LH in b. 316 - see the next annotation. There are also no meaningful differences between them if we omit the imprecise notation of the slur's beginning in GC and arbitrarily added slur in LH in GE. We suggest to complete the figuration based on the corresponding places also with appropriate extention of the slur and retaining both slurring variants. category imprint: Editorial revisions; Source & stylistic information issues: Inaccuracies in GC |
