b. 459-460

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

Slur to e1 in FE (→GE,EE)

Slur to bar 460 suggested by the editors
..

In analogous bars 467-468, the slur in a pianistically identical situation is led to the beginning of the bar. Therefore, it is likely that one of the versions is inaccurate. A longer slur is supported by the slur in the L.H., while a shorter slur could be justified by the presence of  in bar 460. However, the force of the latter is impaired by the double slur in bars 463-464, in which the quaver that ends the passage is also accented ( after ).
​​​​​​​A similar divergence between the range of slurs can be observed between bars 463-464 and 471-472.

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

Longer slur in #E (→GE1→GE2)

Shorter slur in EE & GE3

Average slur suggested by the editors
..

A comparison with similar motifs suggests that the slur encompassing the entire figure in this bar is probably inaccurate. It was deemed as such already in EE and GE3, which replaced it with a shorter one, probably modelled after the previous bar. In the main text, we give a slur reaching the topmost note of the bar, most frequent in analogous bars in the sources.
