What is a "slur"?
A slur is a musical symbol that indicates that a group of notes should be played smoothly and connected, without separating them with distinct articulations. It is shown as a curved line placed above or below the notes that are to be joined. A slur instructs the performer to transition seamlessly from one note to the next, creating a flowing and continuous sound. This technique helps to enhance the expressiveness of the music by connecting the notes more naturally.
