I would listen more to flutists, myself. My point was that playing
appoggiaturas robs them of their harmonic value, and rhythmic strength.
Think of the Dussek Sonata’s third movement Rondo, and how different
its character when they are played as flippy, insignificant grace
notes, and how strong they are when they snap on the beat. Also, Miss
Lawrence felt that short notes like that should be very very short and
accented so they are clear.
