Slurs

b. 25-27

composition: Op. 28 No. 11, Prelude in B major

Separate slurs in A, literal reading

Continuous slur in A (possible interpretation→FE→EE)

No slur in bars 26-27 in FC (→GE)
..

As with the R.H. part, the issue concerning continuation of the L.H. slur is unclear in A due to the transition to a new line – the slur in b. 25 (at the end of the line) may suggest continuation, yet not due to its length, but due to the absence of the final curve; however, the slur in b. 26 does not confirm it. Due to the reasons discussed in the indicated note on the R.H. slur, we assume divided slurs to be more likely, and this is the version we suggest in the main text.
