I'm a bit stuck on how I feel it's most appropriate to place staccato in a piece I'm writing. The excerpt below is not from the piece I'm working on -- I just wrote up a phrase to show how this situation presents in the piece.
How would you play this if you came across it in a piece you were practicing? Do the neighboring staccato crotchets provide enough context to indicate that the tied semiquavers should be played the same way?
