Re: Comments on these difficult slurred intervals?

Two things

First I think that playing as free of excessive lip pressure as possible makes for easy, smooth large intervals.

Then there is the sound that you hear in hall versus a practice studio (like a Wenger module). In the posted recording the London Symphony is playing in a large hall with quite a bit of reverberation (basically added length to sound of note after it stops). So what you hear in the recording (though Stoltzman IS playing smoothly) enhances the connection of the notes. It also doesn't help clarity when the recording is transferred sloppily from a poor sounding source (like this Youtube rendering).
