[ten. ten.], our alternative suggestion |
Both bass notes are certainly to be played tenuto, as in the previous bars. The missing slur could be understood as an indication that the articulation should be other than legato; however, the tenuto markings are of a reminding nature: they indicate that the rhythmic value should be held to the end, which results from the context though – separating these notes as an independent voice written in long rhythmic values would be pointless if they were not to be held in full. Due to the above, we refrain from burdening the main text with indications that do not carry new information.
