No mark in FE (→EE)

Staccato dot in FE
..

The missing staccato dot in FE (→EE) is probably an oversight of the engraver, hence we add it in the main text. The reviser of GE also added a dot.

b. 335-336

composition: Op. 16, Rondo in E♭ major

Slurs in FE (→EE), contextual interpretation

Slurs in GE
..

Before the first semiquaver of bar 336 (which starts the new line), FE (→EE) has an ending of slur from above. However, the slur in bar 335 reaches only the last semiquaver in that bar, almost certainly by mistake – cf. slurs in bars 327-328. The inconsistency of slurring was removed in GE by omitting the end of slur in bar 336, and starting a new slur from the 1st note of this bar. This is certainly an arbitrary revision.
