Say you drop the middle-eighth in a jig to take a breath, but then you still play the dropped note, but as a sixteenth along with the third note.
Take Haste To the Wedding:
A | AFA Agf | ede f…
and drop the g for a breath:
A | AFA Azf |ede f…
but then make it
A | AFA Azg/f/ | ede f…
Is that sort of thing stylistically desirable? I don’t think I hear it much, and Conal O’Grada who drops that g to take a breath doesn’t do it. Kinda fun though, but I wonder whether it’s just something you see in O’Neill’s but shouldn’t play that way.
