Pedalling in GC (literal reading) & GE2

Pedalling in GC (possible interpretation→GE1)

Another interpretation of GC suggested by the editors

Pedalling in FE (→EE)

It is not certain who interpreted Chopin's intention in [A] more accurately – the copyist in GC (→GE) or the engraver of FE (→EE). According to us, an earlier change of pedal in FE seems to be less likely. The notation of GC may be interpreted in three ways, out of which the literal interpretation, adopted in GE2, is dubious from the pianistic point of view. The remaining two – given in GE1 and our main text – are natural from the pianistic point of view and can be considered to be equal.
