Our alternative suggestion |
The pedal markings added in a proofreading of FE in bars 2, 6 and analog. differ in the placement of the pedal release's mark, which in bars 2 and 14 (as well as in 50) is under the 3rd quaver of the bar, while in bar 6 – under the 2nd one. According to us, it cannot be excluded that Chopin had a different vision of pedalling in bars 1-2 and 9-10 (the first bar of the pair without pedal and in the second one, a half-bar long pedal) and a different one in bars 5-6 and 13-14 (all bars with a pedal to the 2nd quavers). We suggest this possibility, in which the mark in bar 14 must be considered as misplaced, in the main text. As an alternative, we give a homogeneous pedalling in bars 2, 6 and analog., in which always falls in the middle of the bar (it requires to assume that in bar 6 was written by mistake).
