b. 22-23

composition: Op. 10 No 9, Etude in F minor

No pedalling in AI & A

 in FE

  in GE & EE

Our suggestion
..

After the  mark in the middle of bar 22, FE is missing the  mark. In GE and EE a  was added at the end of this bar, yet according to us, Chopin probably had in mind a one-and-a-half bar pedal.

b. 23-28

composition: Op. 10 No 9, Etude in F minor

No fingering in AI & A (→FE→GE)

Fingering in EE
..

In EE the fingering is marked also in these bars. Fontana develops the composer's hints, yet he also suggests some unobvious solutions – cf. bar 22.

No marks in AI & FE (→GE,EE)

Wedges in A

Our variant suggestion
..

According to us, it is highly unlikely that the wedges over d1, which are present only in A, were deleted in FE (→GE,EE) on purpose. Therefore, in the main text we suggest a possibility of considering them.
