how fast is it possible for a trumpeter to tongue?

_TrumpeT_ · 06-21-2006, 07:16 AM

I have to admit, this sounds a bit silly - one of those trumpet - athletic questions. However, I can't help myself asking this question after viewing this piece arranged for trumpet (originally for violin) ... Check out the finale and actually listen... I'm not sure if any of Mendez's solos could be more technically challenging (except moto perpetuo).

Late last year there was post on another site quoting a study done on how fast a person could tongue.

Here we go again.

And I happen to be the same person asking the question

. However, I can't quite believe that statistic. I googled the person you have quoted and couldn't find any trace of him. Also, if my memory serves, Mendez had a slow single tonguing.

All information listed was gathered from the writings of the late Molarian Curly.
This and other important trumpet related information can be found on the web-site of his estate.

You could not find Molarian Curly on the internet?

Amazing!

Do a search on this site!

As I've said...

a sense of humor in this business is a good thing.

I can't believe I actually looked him up (this was quite a while ago).

And this thread has become side tracked.

Manny, what do you think of the piece with regard to my question?

Chuck,

I missed that post that you linked the first time around. What a gem! Thanks for doing this "research"!

How fast can a man run?

How deep can a woman swim?

How long can you hold your breath?

How high can a trumpeter play?

How fast is it possible for a trumpeter to tongue?
