Comments
I watched a tutorial which stated firmly that playing the last beat of the motif (say the third beat in bar 1) slurred to the next note, is wrong. That it should be detached. And that is certainly the accepted practice. But, I like this version, with the slur. Maybe I’ll make another recording for comparison…
