Pedalling in EF

Pedalling in PE

Generally, Chopin's pedalling aims at holding the bass note as a background for the later performed harmonic filling. Therefore, the omission of exactly the bass note in the pedalling of PE indicates an inaccurate recreation of the notation of [A]. In the main text we adopt the pedalling of EF, compatible with the principles followed by Chopin in this respect.
