Always hard for me to be conscious of my air output, resulting in articulation frustration.. great advice on holding it back for easing articulation, I'll keep it in mind!

The Proof Is In The Pudding, folks. Nina is right about practicing T&G. I have been struggling with my breath support after spending long periods of time not practicing, and in basically one day of methodically practicing my T&G slurred, I've re-discovered it. For me, it's something that I already learned and knew years ago as a flute major, but once I thought I lost it, the T&G helped me re-gain the technique FAST. And it's great for my embouchure and most of all my fingers.

how do u practice single tonguing? so that u can tongue fast?

Interesting, I dont often use double tonguing because I can single tongue very fast. My teachers are always astonished that I single tongue most things. So because of this I need to practice it more. It's triple tonguing that I have the most difficulty with!

Thanks for your response. The focus on your lips is very usefull. My own position is better than I thought.

Hi Nina! It's Carlos from Brazil once more. Some time ago I started practising this exercise, but it used to be fairly uneven. Then, my teacher and I realized that it would be better to get started with fingering exercises then coming back to Taffanel & Gaubert #4. I think it has worked and I feel the improvement. Yes, using a metronome is the key. I also use a tuner to get the notes right pitch. Kisses! You're awesome!

I took your advice. I think I was blowing too hard. When I blow softly my tongue moves faster.

I took your advice. I think I was trying to blow too much air. It seems when I slow down and blow less air my tongue gets faster, and I produce better articulation. |
