Slurs

b. 295

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I

No slur in FE (→GE,EE1→EE2)

Slur in EE3

Slur suggested by the editors
..

A comparison with analogous bar 311 suggests that the absence of the slur is rather an inaccuracy of notation in this case. This conclusion is confirmed by the inconsistent and most probably incomplete slurs in the L.H. in this bar. Due to this reason, in the main text we suggest a two-bar slur modelled after bars 311-312. The slur was added also in EE3, yet without linking it to the next one, which may be considered an alternative attempt at reconstructing the notation of [A].

Slur in bars 296-297 in FE (→GE,EE)

Continuation of slur suggested by the editors
..

According to us, there is a credible possibility that the slur of the sources is inaccurate, which is indicated, e.g. by the missing slur in the previous bar, unjustified by the phrasing. Due to this reason, in the main text, here and in the previous bar, we suggest a generally unquestionable slur present in analogous bars 311-312.

b. 299

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I

No slur in FE (→GE1→GE2)

Slur in EE & GE3
..

Omission of the slur in the L.H. only in the first out of four similar bars must be considered an inaccuracy. The slur was added in EE and GE3.

There is no slur in GE3, which must be an oversight.
