    I love almost all of the editing in those books! Just not that one.

    Janna, Thank you. If we change the slur markings of those edited books, will adjudicators at festivals and competitions know that the editing of the books is not original? I suppose we could always bring the urtext edition for the adjudicator.

    I have loaned an urtext to a student for this very reason. Otherwise, I would feel comfortable leaving a post-it note saying “student and teacher have altered some articulations” if I felt like it was a festival where this was appropriate. Any informed judge knows the composer didn’t write those slurs.
