In a piano duet for four hands, who controls the damper pedal.?

My thoughts about the possibilities are:





a) those of us blessed/damned with a Y chromosome





b) the pianist who is the greatest control freak





3) the least accomplished of the two so my, I mean his/her mistakes are not sustained





4) By convention, the person playing secundo.In a piano duet for four hands, who controls the damper pedal.?
It may be indicated in one player's music, but if it's not, it is usually left to the person playing the accompaniment (usually the secundo), not by who is closest to the pedal.





Options a), b), and c) aren't really legitimate reasons(unless one player is skillfully unable to play and pedal for two at the same time; naturally the other player should pedal.)





(Make sure the piece you are playing even needs pedal at all; with four hands, sometimes it hurts more than it helps.)In a piano duet for four hands, who controls the damper pedal.?
