b. 458-459

Dot in FE (→GE,EE)

2 wedges suggested by the editors

In bars 458-459, 462-463, 466-467 and 470-471 in FE (→EE), the majority (6 out of 8) of the figures consisting of a semiquaver triplet and a quaver is provided with a staccato mark at the end. At the same time, wedges are twice more frequent than dots. According to us, there is no reason to assume that those differences are not simply accidental inaccuracies; therefore, in the main text we give wedges in all eight figures. Similar, unifying procedures were introduced already in GE1 (→GE2), where a wedge was added in bar 467, and in GE3, where a dot was changed to a wedge in bar 471.
