Hello
A question for you experts of music theory. What is the correct notation in my example? Is one of the examples total incorrect?
Thank you for your answer!
#1 is obviously different from the other two and correct in its own right. This type of slurring is common in string parts because it allows the high G to be played with a different bowing.
#2 & #3 sound the same. I'm not going to say either is wrong or right, because musicians would play them the same. I will say that the publisher I work for uses #3 as their house style. This type of slurring is common in wind instruments because it allows them to play the high G without having to re-attack it. (which is easier for younger players)
