In the main text we unify the range of the  hairpins in bars 131-132 and 135-136 on the basis of the notation of A in bar 3 and 7-8. The signs in FE begin earlier and in the remaining editions they were extended even more: in GE1op and GE1no2 on the right-hand side, in the remaining – on the left-hand side.
