Yes, well, the guitar is not a piano and one must make accomodations for that.
Regardless, the minor 2nd is far easier to effect without the hammer on, but using the 2 string approach - much closer to the piano sound - as both notes of the minor 2nd interval can be heard simultaneously.
Oh, yes. I realize most gutar arrangements do the hammer.
But I'm addicted to the Piano version played by Alicia de Larrocha. The minor second played the way I am doing it is much more pianistic, I think. And, I just like the dissonance of both notes of that minor 2nd ringing.
Masterfully done. Your technique is quite pleasing to the ear!

Alicia de Larrocha does the minor 2nd every time. . throughout the piece.
All of her phrases sound alike. Its tough to make that happen on a guitar without using the regular slur (hammer on)

BTW, this piece sounds like it influenced Ragtime melodies by Joplin.

Super.., I prefer the sound of hammers, but I like the pianistic sound as well, especially on slower pieces like this one.

I have also gone from the hammer to way you are\ playing. Unfortunatley there are some passages where the hammer is needed.
