High finger legato vs close finger legato
on: June 02, 2025, 06:39:18 PM
What exactly is meant by "the high finger legato" and by "the close finger legato" in John Thompson's edition of Hanon? How is the hand positioned in these touches?
Even though legato, I believe, is rarely played with quiet hand nowadays, I still want to understand those techniques as they should help me to learn the modern finger legato.
