  b. 696

No pedalling in sources

Pedalling suggested by the editors

Chopin began adding pedalling marks in the proofreading of FE (→EE) in b. 697, the first bar that does not belong to the main part of this theme, repeated without changes after b. 197-245, and in the final section identical also to b. 109-113. Therefore, there are no doubts that he regarded the pedalling written for the first time, including in b. 113, as valid also here, in b. 696. We consider the missing pedalling in this and in the next bars in FC (→GE) to be an oversight of the composer, who omitted the entire final fragment of the piece, after the abridged fragment encompassing b. 632-695, while adding indications in the copy.
