Re: f#, Robert Marcellus and me

HAT- you've completely missed the point of my argument. I was talking about playing a perfect LEGATO. This is not possible using the "flip" method. You have recorded scales played RHYTHMICALLY in 16ths, at a metronome speed of ca. 104 bpm.

Please now go and put your metronome on at ca. 50 bpm, and play the following in 8ths: F-F#-F-F#-F-F#-F-F#-F. Play it twice using both fingerings, and attempt to make the best legato you can. If you can post a recording of that and I can't tell the difference, I'll be very suprised. (Unless of course your version with the side keys is also of a low quality legato).

The report on your masterclass said the following: "David learned from Robert Marcellus that this note should almost always be played with the left index finger."

I strongly disagree, and find this a very strange thing to teach. In any passage where a legato is required it would be ludicrous to insist that someone uses the "flip" fingering. Of course, I wasn't at your masterclass, and didn't hear it all in context.
