b. 14

composition: Op. 28 No. 1, Prelude in C major

Slur in A (→FE→EE) & GE2 (→GE3)

No slur in FC (→GE1)
..

The absence of a slur in FC (→GE1) is undoubtedly an oversight by the copyist, complemented in GE2 (→GE3).

stretto - - - in A (→FE→EE)

No indication in FC (→GE)
..

The absence of the indication stretto - - - is almost certainly an oversight by the copyist in FC (→GE). See also bar 21 and 22-23.

b. 22-23

composition: Op. 28 No. 1, Prelude in C major

No dashes in A (→FE→EE)

Dashes in FC (→GE)
..

The range of cresc. having been extended until the very end of b. 23 in FC (→GE) is a mistake of the copyist, who led the dashes marking its range to the end of the line, just like in A; however, he did not realize that the end of the line is placed differently in each of the manuscripts – in A in b. 21, whereas in FC – in b. 23.

..

Fontana overlooked in FC (→GE1) the beam for the bottom R.H. voice. GE2 corrected the mistake.
