Original in: Jan Ekier private collection, Warsaw


  b. 572-579

No slurs under L.H. in A (→FC,FE)

Six-note slurs in GE1 & EE

Five-note slurs in GE2 (→GE3)

In b. 572-573, 574-575 and 578-579 the separate L.H. slurs are an arbitrary addition of the engravers (revisers) of GE and EE. In such a layout, when the parts of both hands are written on the bottom stave, slurs over notes refer to both parts, so there is no need to double them. The five-note slurs in GE2 (→GE3) stem from the R.H. slurs (over notes), which were changed in the same way.
