Dale, For once you have me stumped. I know what you're talking about and it's a slur that follows the notes from one staff to the other. But I sure don't know any special name for it other than slur. For lack of anything better, call it a "Cross-staff slur" or a "Cross-hand slur".

So this is a legato indication somehow transferring from one hand-part of a piano score to the other. I remember Dan having a different name for it. I am needing to communicate that concept to an engraver, and want to be well prepared for the discussion. And, as I recall, there is no way for us to accomplish such a slur without assistance, correct? Thanks for chiming in. I like it when you do that.
