Slur in A (literal reading→GE1FE)

Slur in A, contextual interpretation

Slurs in EE & GE2 (in both hands)

The slur of A ends still in bar 68, yet its shape does not exclude the intention of leading it to the beginning of the next bar, where the phrase ends. According to us, this is how the sign is to be interpreted – cf. a similar situation at the end of bar 65. The editions adopted the literal interpretation of the slur and EE and GE2 added an analogous slur in the part of the L.H.
