No pedalling in AI

Pedalling in A

GE (→FE→EE)

In AI, there are no pedal marks here. In practice it certainly means that the pedalling given before in analogous bar 4 should be used (this kind of economic notation is not an exception in Chopin's music, cf. e.g. Impromptu in A Op. 29, bars 1-2, 5-6 & 19-20). GE (→FE→EE) inaccurately reproduced the position of the pedal release asterisk—it was placed under the 3rd LH crotchet even though it appears earlier in A. Such imprecision was also repeated in analogous bars 28 & 32.
