b. 153-154

composition: Op. 50 No. 3, Mazurka in C♯ minor

Pedal in bar 153 in AF (→FE→EE)

Pedal in bars 153-154 in GE

Our variant suggestion
..

Chopin was consistent in writing shorter pedalling in AF (→FE→EE) – cf. b. 149-152. The notation adopted in the main text should be understood as variant, i.e. the pedal released at the end of b. 153 or only just in b. 154.

b. 153

composition: Op. 50 No. 3, Mazurka in C♯ minor

No marking in AI, AF & EE

in FE & GE
..

The  indication was added in FE in the last stage of proofreading. Without [AG] it is difficult to say whether the same was true of GE or whether Chopin wrote it already in the aforementioned autograph.

b. 153

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

Accent in GC (→GE) & EE2

No mark in FE (→EE1)
..

The absence of an accent in FE (→EE1), if not an oversight by the engraver, means that Chopin added the mark to GC (→GE).

b. 153

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

..

FE1 has no  sign here. It is undoubtedly an oversight by the engraver – the sign was added in FE2 (→EE,FE3→FE4), and is present in GC (→GE).

b. 153

composition: Op. 23, Ballade in G minor

..

In A, the  to the 2nd quaver (e2) and 3 naturals to the 5th crotchet in the bar (B-b and b1) are missing. All accidentals were already added by FE (→GE,EE). In the main text we also add cautionary naturals to g2 and a2. The latter was also added by EE.
