Slur from g in A (→FEGE,EE)

Our suggestion

According to us, separating the accented a note from the following quavers is unnatural in terms of both articulation and phrasing. It is confirmed by the slurring of similar bars 2, 5-6, 34-35 and 38-39 – a and g are combined with a slur in five out of seven places in A and in all seven in FE. Therefore, in the main text we suggest a slur beginning already from the 3rd quaver in the bar.
