Verrry interesting! I thought you were crazy, jez, until I looked at my copy of the score (Hawkes & Son Ltd. 1929) and discovered that you are absolutely correct. There is a printed gliss. in the sax part in the score, but not in the referenced piano original at the bottom of the page, which has the notes played in octaves! I've never seen the gliss in the printed sax part, nor in the Ronkin/Frascotti exerpt book nor have I ever heard anyone play it that way. Nor have I ever heard a conductor ask the saxist to play a slur there (and I've performed the Moussorgsky/Ravel "Pictures" about a jillion times under almost that many conductors of all nationalities!).

Perhaps if I get the opportunity to play this part again in the future, I'll try the glissando at a rehearsal, just to see what the reaction is!
