December Wedding

Do you play all of the tune in the pattern 2-2-2-3 instead of 3-3-3 or just those bars where it is obvious?

Syncopation

Only bars 2 and 6 are played entirely 'straight' (with no bounce at all).

In the B part, the bits which pedal between the B and another note have the emphasis on that other note. This seems to convince the ear that the music has suddenly slowed down for that part.
