Uh, the topic I talked about were appoggiatura. You are quite correct about the heavy overlap on some trills but I am afraid that this is not deliberate but just bad technique: I'd rather have a clean, even non-legato execution there. Let's talk about this in a few years again. Trilling on adjacent buttons on a chromatic button accordion turns out to be sort-of tricky since you cannot really employ the wrist. And the buttons, as opposed to piano keys, don't have significant bounce of their own for shaping the trill. So it's really the fingers that must deliver. On a 5-row instrument, you can always adjust your fingering using the redundant help rows in order to be trilling on non-adjacent buttons, making it easier to have a nice pizzaz. On my 4-row instrument, some trills require trilling on adjacent buttons, and this piece's voice distribution makes it hard to use anything but 3-4 fingering here. So with regard to the execution of the trills, this recording is just a consequence of me being an incompetent player. Sorry if you got confused into assigning more meaning to it. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
