Slurs

b. 38

composition: Op. 28 No. 22, Prelude in G minor

Half-bar slur in A (→FC→GE)

Slur from B1-B in FE

No slur in EE
..

The later starting point of the slur in FE resulted from an inaccurate interpretation of A. The missing slur in EE is an oversight, like in previous bars.

b. 40-41

composition: Op. 28 No. 22, Prelude in G minor

Slur in A

No slur in FC (→GE) & FE →EE)
..

The fact that the slur was overlooked both by the copyist and the engraver of FE could be explained by its shape and placement – the greater part of the slur is flat and is high above the text, closer to the bottom stave of b. 33-34 (it even intersects the 'p' letter in the pedalling markings) than the final chords in the Prelude. The fact that it is a slur is confirmed by its ending as well as by the slur over the crossed-out version of those bars.
