How to differentiate in between portato and only phrase marking (not portato)?

[@Ri4ndri]

So Portato is simply stacatto with sustain?

[@PianotvNet]

Yes, more or less!

[@dfinedigital]

What keyboard do you uses?

[@damoon57]

Thank you baby

[@exlaxtower1]

Do you hold the pedal the whole section?

[@PianotvNet]

+KAZOOANS No I don't - I do a couple lifts in that phrase, otherwise the sound would get a bit too blurry.

So it's kinda like a potato skin which is smooth but it also has a little dotted spots on them. I think I just discovered how they came to name this style Portato - I am a genius.

[@SuspiciousAlertness]

bwahaha that potato pic is hilarious

[@alphaomegamusicschool]

You showed the differences but not how to actually play portato
