2 pedals in AF (→FEEE), contextual interpretation

Two-bar long pedal in GE

Our variant suggestion

Both versions of the pedalling are most probably authentic; however, it is likely that the two-bar pedal from GE is the version Chopin wanted to forgo, yet he overlooked this place while performing corrections in [AG] (→GE). Due to this reason, in the main text we suggest a variant solution, in which we leave the issue of changing the pedal under the bars to the discretion of the performer.
