I have a copy of a transposed manuscript Eb part that traces its ancestry
back to the Philadelphia Orchestra in which that measure is very clearly
A-Bb-A-C-Bb-B(natural). The last two notes are actually unison with violin I
as well as the other instruments you mentioned. The first four notes are
unison with violin II. The problem is simply one of not having cancelled the
previous flat from the second eighth-note in the original. The D part is
the only one with the problem, as none of the other instruments jump voice
parts the same way.
