R.H. slur in A, another interpretation |
The slurs of A, written only for the R.H., are unclear here:
- the slur in bar 56 starts over the 2nd demisemiquaver, but it points to the first;
- the end of the slur in bar 56 suggests continuation, which is, however, not confirmed by the slur in bar 57 (on a new page).
Interpretation of those slurs adopted in the majority of editions, although possible, is, according to us, a double miss, which was partially corrected in GE2. In turn, we consider the addition of slurs in the L.H. part to be justified, which was introduced in all editions in bar 57, and in EE and GE2 also in bar 56.
If the version with harmonic accompaniment was chosen in bar 53, one of the interpretations of the slurs of A is to be selected here.
