Pedalling in A (→FE→EE)

Pedalling in FC

Pedalling in GE

The pedal change between b. 33 and 34 is written in FC inaccurately – one can get the impression that the pedal is to be pressed already on the last semiquaver in b. 33. It caused a minor inaccuracy in GE too, in which the  mark was placed clearly before that note.
