Slurs

b. 530-531

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

Slurs in FE (→GE,EE)

Slurs suggested by the editors
..

Earlier endings of slurs in FE (→GE,EE) are probably inaccurate – see the note to bars 175-176. Due to this reason, in the main text we lead them to the quavers that end the motifs.

b. 541-542

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

No slur in FE (→GE1→GE2)

New slur in EE

Extension of slur to end of bar 541 in GE3

Extension of slur to bar 542 suggested by the editors
..

The missing slur must be inadvertence. In EE, the slurring was completed in the simplest manner by adding a slur over the part of the phrase without it. In the main text, we suggest an adequate extension of the slur from the previous bar, in accordance with the slurs in all 5 analogous places. A similar revision was introduced in GE3; however, the slur was led only to the last semiquaver in bar 541.

b. 542

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

No slur in FE

f1-g1 slur in GE

d1-e1 slur in EE
..

The missing slur of FE is a patent oversight. The slur was added both in GE and EE; however, in GE it combines the upper notes of the third, like in analogous bars, whereas in EE – the bottom ones (there was no space for a slur between the upper ones).

b. 543-544

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

Slur to e2 in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2)

Slur to crotchet in GE3
..

In the majority of the editions, the ending of the slur is inaccurate – in all remaining analogous figures, the slurs reach the crotchet that ends the move.

b. 546-547

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

Slurs to f1 in FE (→EE)

Different slurs in GE1 (→GE2)

Slurs to d1 in GE3
..

The slurs of FE (→EE), longer than in the vast majority of the remaining similar figures, are most probably inaccurate. Shortening the first of them in GE1 (→GE2) also seems to be an inaccuracy – the reviser would have certainly shortened both slurs, like it was performed in GE3. We introduce the latter also in the main text.
