Slur up to beginning of bar 277 in GC & FE (contextual interpretation) |

Slur up to beginning of bar 276 in GE |
||
Leading the slur in GC until bar 277 is obvious, in spite of the lack of the slur's ending in a new line – in bar 276 (at the end of the line) both the slur and the tie of b1 go far beyond the bar line and none of them is finished afterwards, which points to an oversight of the person who was writing. The fact of shortening the slur in GE must be then considered a missed revision. In FE the situation is analogous to GC – both curved lines, reaching the end of the line in bar 266, suggest continuation, which, however, does not follow (FE4 finished the tie). In spite of this, the engraver of EE interpreted each of these curved lines differently – the tie is led to b1 in bar 277 but the phrase mark only to bar 266.
From the practical point of view, all three notations mean the same thing.
