"I do not adovocate double and triple tonguing... by constantly practising it I am sure it produces a French or thin tone"

I guess he thinks it creates tension in the throat.
Which it does...

It also puts the back of the tongue very high in the mouth. This brightens the tone considerably. I find it facinating that the publishers accepted the note "French or thin tone". That would not fly in our politcally correct 21st century! I am now looking for french quotes about the bloated, stuffy germanic sound!

I prefer to call it "Freedom Tone"

I think Mr Levy's comment was just referring to this particular exercise - i.e that the student should start the exercise as quiet as they can and grow to as loud as they can play.

As far as I'm aware this abbreviation has never been standard practise.

This is a very interesting book all the same - I love the colourful use of the English language that the authors used in those days - very poetic.

Great book, I'll be printing out this lot soon as I'm back home. On the issue of double or triple tonguing, I thought it was common practice that if something can at all be single tongued, it should be? Is this correct or am I putting myself through unnecessary strain?

It depends on the speed of your single tonguing. If it is light and fast, no strain. If it is like mine, multiple tonguing is a blessing!

This is a very nice link. Does anyone else have other public domain links for trumpet stuff?

I saw or heard a comment a while back by Reinhardt saying something about excessive multiple tonguing messing with your tone

I like his statement at the bottom of page 3 that "If the pupil is strong, he must dwell on the above notes at least six hours a day." Wish I had that much time to devote....
