Re: Tonguing and tongue level - tip at back of lower teeth

JD,
although there are variations in tonguing technique, the only way to figure out what is next is to solidify what you have.

After the first year of trumpet lessons EVERY PLAYER should have a solid daily routine. With that, you can easily figure out where the limits are. Without that, you are just taking a shot in the dark.

If you have a solid routine, you can answer the question of necessity for change without us. If you do not, we can't help you either.

Regardless of the specific technique, Clarke is universally accepted as great double and triple tongue exercizes. GET THAT DAILY ROUTINE DOWN. There is no substitute!
