Benedetto (BWV 981) or Alessandro (BWV 974)?

Right, I wasn't that complete in my description.

More specific, I mean the Adagio from Concerto Nº 3 in D minor, BWV 974.

Generally, I use right pedal on Bach to enrich sound colour, but not as an alternative means for legato.

For this piece, 2nd movement particularly - yes!
