              Bars 53 & 54 should be staccato and no dotted 1/8th 
              notes would be staccato

               six of the 1/6th notes
Bar 188 - Note: B&H score has different slurring for V2 and Va.
                Both should be the same. No changes made
Bar 190 - Vc - fourth and fifth 1/8 notes should be slurred and 
               sixth 1/8 note should be staccato  
               (to be consistent with V1,V2,Va)
Bar 193 - V2 - 'dolce' label should be included 
Bar 206 - V2,Va - 1/4 notes should be changed to tied 1/8 notes 
               to be consistent with bars 200 - 205 (or bars 
               200-205 changed from tied 1/8 notes to 1/4 notes)
Bar 206-207 - Vc -  The slur from the last 1/8 note of bar 206 to
                  the first 1/16 note of bar 207 should be removed.
                  The slur is not consistent with other parts and 
                  does not fit the following sF - same as bar 64-65

               (to be consistent with bar 71 and elsewhere)
Bar 213 - V1,V2 - all 1/4 notes should be staccato 
               (to be consistent)
Bar 223 - Va - Decresendo sign should be shown on this score
Bar 231/232 - Va - The Slur marks and the tie position are 
               confusing, as indicated, the last three 1/8 notes 
               in Bar 231 are slurred as is all of Bar232. But 
               the two slur groups are connected by a tie. 
               The result should be the same as a single 
               slur covering all nine 1/8 notes.
               Left as originally indicated in B&H score.
Bar 252 - V1 - See comment for Va in Bar 231/232
