Classic period trill,mordent,appogiature ...

on: March 05, 2011, 05:30:55 AM

I'm really confused with this stuff,when to begin with the upper note of tr. and when the lowerne? what's the difference between a tr. and a mordent(/\/\/) and the speed?, when i need to finish it with the lower note?. In a Mozart, I find differents versions of tr. in differents publications, how to choose..? All in the context of Classic era.
Thanks guys

Usually for Mozart Bach start on the upper note - not 100% always.
