The slurs of A are not entirely clear due to deletions and to the fact that the final version of bar 75 was written on a separate stave. According to us, although the notation includes two separate slurs, the way they overlap clearly indicates an intention of combining them. This is how it was interpreted in GE2 and this could have also been the aim of the engraver of GE1, which, however, remains uncertain due to an inconsistent notation: at the end of the page, in bar 74, the slur suggests a continuation, yet at the beginning of bar 75 there is rather a new slur. In FE (→EE) the doubt was resolved in favour of the separated slurs and this is how we interpret GE1.
