It is difficult to explain how the risoluto indication was replaced in EE by brillante. It was probably an arbitrary decision of the publisher, although it could have also been the initial version, changed by Chopin in FE (→GE) in the last stage of proofreading. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Authentic corrections of FE |

In the main text we include the pedal markings of FE, added by Chopin probably to the basis for FE. The missing markings in EE are probably the engraver's mistake. See also b. 223. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in EE |

It is unclear whether it was Chopin's intention for this bar to be devoid of pedal markings. In A, there are no markings starting from this bar to the end of the page (b. 233). Therefore, it is quite likely that we are dealing with a case of distraction (cf. b. 217-218), particularly since the markings added while proofreading FE in b. 222-223 prove that it was not the composer's intention for there to be no markings at all. On the other hand, if Chopin added pedal markings in the next two bars, he could have added them here as well, which can be considered a confirmation or at least an acceptance of their absence. However, it is also this argument that can be refuted – while proofreading FE Chopin probably did not check the sound at the piano and could have taken into account only the L.H. part, which does not require a pedal in the discussed bar, at least for harmonic reasons. However, it is advisable due to the R.H. part and its harmonic figuration spanning two octaves. The need for pedal in a similar context is confirmed by the 2nd half of b. 220, b. 216, 218 and analog. category imprint: Editorial revisions |

As in bars 216-219, the use of wedges in GE (→FE,IE) rather does not derive from the A notation. In EE the marks were overlooked. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Errors in EE , Wedges |
