Double and triple tonguingWhat syllables do you use for multiple tonguing? Arbans says 'tu ku' for double and 'tu tu ku'. Some people I know use 'da ga' and 'dah guh duh' for triple. I use 'tu ku' and don't triple tongue. I will find what works best for me when tripling.

double and triple tongueingI was taught and still use the a tuh tuh kuh for triple toungueing and tuh kuh for double tounging. It has worked for me for many years and at my advanced age I can still triple tongue as fast as anyone I have ever heard. At Intelochen Raphael Mendez told me that my tongue was loose at both ends, quoting from Herbert Clark's opinion of another cornetist of that era. I guess that I was properly taught.

Nobody wants to here it but the key to multiple tounging is slow and methodical...with a metronome...keeping the tongue light with plenty of air....

I use for double as well as triple tounging Tu-ku-tu-ku-tu-ku etc. I used to use Tu-tu-ku for triple but I found out that the double articulation (for me) is faster then my triple. My teacher told me that no one would notice that in the triplets. And he was right....

I use tOH kOH for double, and tOH tOH kOH or tOH kOH tOH for triple. Using the OH vowel gets the sound to stay big and doesn't pinch off creating a bad sound. Use whatever vowels you need to get the sound coloring you want, but never small and tight.

Use different sylables for different sounds and ranges.
Tu-Ku, Da-Ga, Ti-Ki, Doo-Goo all have a place in your playing. Listen to the triple pattern on Wynton Marsalis's recording of "Grand Russian Fantasia" on the Carnaval CD. You will hear a very legato multiple tongue.
To start go very slow and make sure your sylables are crisp and all sound the same. Use a metronome.
