In AF the slur breaks here; however, it is uncertain whether it was supposed to indicate a division of the slur – one can see it as an inaccurately written combination of the slurs, which is how it was interpreted in FE (→EE). In the main text we give the continuous slur of GE, which almost certainly corresponds to the notation of [AG].

The missing slur in AF does not seem to be an oversight; it is rather an element of an intermediate performance indications concept between AI and GE, or of an alternative one. In the main text, based on GE, we include the slur. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations |
