Maurice Andre seemed to think that language made a huge difference. In French (the language of Arban), Arban's suggested syllable to "tu" is more towards "tiu" to us English speakers. Maurice Andre was quoted as saying that our language put English speaking trumpet players at a disadvantage due to ths difference in syllables.
