Hi Ralph.

Nice.

Could you tell me what the intent of the slur markings over staccato notes is? Is that a breath marking?

I got the "Music Notation (Berklee Guide)" in February, but haven't had a chance to get too far into it. I took an orchestration class back in the 70's and have some background in reading string, keyboard and recorder music -- they each treat slurs their own way. And it varies from era to era and place to place, it seems.

Would appreciate the views of a working musician with a jazz perspective.

Thanks

Walt
