No pedalling in A

Pedalling in FE (→EE,GE1GE2)

GE3 (→GE4GE5)

Our suggestion

Chopin added the pedalling in a proofreading of FE. The  mark, overlooked in bar 28, was added in GE3 (→GE4GE5), yet too early, as it seems; the reviser probably did not notice that despite a different notation, the bass note remains unchanged during the entire bar. The addition we perform includes the authentic pedalling from the previous bar. See also bars 32-36
