Slur in EE

Slur & wedge in GC

Slur in FE

Slur in GE

The slur endings of both EE and GC are musically justified. The slur of FE seems less convincing, it may have not been read correctly. The slur in GE, even though based on GC, is imprecise. In the main text we present the most precise markings of GC - the wedge emphasised slur ending.
