Pedalling

b. 25

composition: Op. 25 No 6, Etude in G♯ minor

 in FC, FE, EE & GE2 (→GE3)

 in GE1

Our variant suggestion

..

According to us, the earlier pedal release than in similar situations may be a result of Chopin's mistake, who, while introducing the pedalling, most probably in the already finished pitch and rhythm text, only saw the change of the chord and did not check its sound. Therefore, in the main text we suggest a variant solution.
The  sign in GE1, placed slightly later, is most probably a mistake.

b. 31

composition: Op. 25 No 6, Etude in G♯ minor

No markings in FC (→GE) & EE

Pedalling in FE

..

The pedalling was added by Chopin most probably at the time of proofreading FE.

b. 46

composition: Op. 25 No 6, Etude in G♯ minor

 in FC (→GE) & EE

 in FE

..

Taking into account analogous bar 44, the later pedal depression in FE has to be considered as an inaccuracy. It is hard to assume to whom it could be ascribed and what could have provoked it.

Pedalling in FC & FE

Pedalling in GE

No pedalling in EE

..

The missing pedalling in EE must be an oversight. It cannot be excluded that it was Chopin himself that overlooked the base text to EE, completing the pedalling markings in this bar (in FC one can see that in bars 46-47 they were added by Chopin).

No markings in FC (→GE), FE & EE

Pedalling suggested by the editors

..

These kind of figures in the L.H. are consistently provided with pedalling in the entire Etude. In this situation, lack of indications in this bar must be considered as Chopin's oversight.
