No pedal signs in FE

The missing pedal change at the transition between the bars must be an inadvertence. Consequently, inaccuracies in pedalling marks may be assumed also in bars 390, 398 and 399, although in that cases, they do not suggest an erroneous performance. A corresponding addition was introduced both in GE and EE (in the latter, inaccurately).

b. 397-398

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III

 in bar 397 in A (→GE→FE)

 in both bars in EE
..

The  marking was placed in FE before the chord on the 3rd beat in bar 397. This kind of placement is not something unusual, yet, together with the small gaps between the notes, it could have misled the engraver or reviser of EE. Repetition of  in bar 389, also before the c2 minim, suggests that such a placement was considered to be more likely due to the absence of any accents on these minims, differently than in analogous bars 53-54 and 57-58, in which EE has a  and bars 401-402, which include accents.
