An earlier pedal release is the original concept, written in AT, AW and most probably in [A], which is proved by CDP and the sign written by the copyist in GC. The sign was then deleted by Chopin; the composer introduced a similar correction probably also in the base text to EE. Leaving in FE the earlier version may point to [A] as base text for this edition – Chopin corrected both copies in this place, yet not the autograph (however, it is not the only possible scenario).
