Without pedal, you exaggerate the legato motions, and are forced to hold down the keys longer than you would otherwise. Also, because you will not achieve perfect sustains without pedal, your ear and mind connects the lines between those breaks in sound, and you train yourself to listen for that continuity, even if there is a physical break. Otherwise, very, very good answer. | |
