We consider the missing 
mark in A an inaccuracy of notation; in the main text we suggest a relevant addition. At the same time, we take into consideration the harmonic change on the 6th quaver in the bar – g
1 moves to f1. A pedal release was also indicated in GE (→FE,EE,IE), yet the sign was put later, before or under the 7th quaver in the bar, which hampers the clarity of the harmonic change. The fact that Chopin almost certainly did not want such a long pedal is indirectly proved by the rhythmic value of the c minim at the beginning of the bar – in A Chopin most probably removed the dot prolonging this note, which means that he wanted to avoid a direct link between this c note and b on the 7th quaver.
