Let\u2019s start episode number 307, of Secrets of Organ Playing Podcast. This question was sent by Tamara. And she writes:\n\nHello Vidas\u2013\nI have been following your Secrets of Organ Playing emails\u2014very helpful, thank you!\n\nDo you recommend total legato for hymn playing in any situation? I did learn and follow the 4 ways to render a hymn in the Ritchie book (Chapter 7). It seems that the best, most efficient hymn playing is balance of legato and articulation, distributed among the SATB parts.\nThank you. \nTamara
