Continuous slur in A |
||
In A the phrase mark in b. 15, which opens a new line, is ambiguous – it starts over the 1st chord, but its shape indicates that it should be a continuation. The ending of the phrase mark in b. 14, dragged far beyond the bar line, is an argument for a continuous phrase mark, which we give in the main text. Therefore, we consider the division of the phrase mark in FE (→EE) to be an erroneous interpretation of A. In turn, in FC Fontana reproduced the continuous phrase mark in b. 14-15 correctly, but he marked its continuation between b. 15 and 16 very inaccurately (b. 16 opens a new line in FC), hence the version of A cannot be guessed on this basis.
