zeroparchment 94 tongue**

I can’t even tongue 16th notes at 100 bmp lmao

As with all things... Practice, practice, practice. This is the hardest part of playing any given instrument, but it can be especially difficult for winds. If it's a specific section of a piece, try perhaps playing the notes slurred, then do it only with tongue on open notes, and then play the whole thing. Playing with a metronome also certainly helps keep both parts of your body which you're not used to using together together. #1 thing imo is a light tongue. If you try to compensate for the lack of coordination in the beginning with a heavy articulation, you're doomed. It will just not sound good that way. Practice getting the notes as *close* as possible to slurred without getting them slurred. To do this, start preferably at a slower tempo and then slowly speed up. I hope I answered your question!

@@marc-andremorel2174 I struggle with my tonguing alot, I don't know how to fix it, been playing for about 3-4 years now

do it

how did it go?

I did good on the piece and the notes, but my bari sax was 60 years old so they didn’t like the way it sounded,

@@plumpdy5810 cant blame it on the instrument plenty of old saxophones sound amazing like mk vi baritone sound amazing. Its probably a personal tone problem.

picubed_13579 you have to know how to do the techniques first

@plcubed_13579 What a great question! I, too, am looking at attempting Derek's techniques and style of playing. I'm curious as to which song Derek will suggest. I'm from the classical world so I know the importance of this formula: Technique/Sound regimen + emulating the greats = musical you! Good on you for seeking that balance so early in your life. Along your journey to sounding like the greats, I hope you'll feel free enough to sound like you, too. All the best.

what if you still need to go faster

Xternole yeah but that’s a really really hard technique and it doesn’t really sound the same

@@artistictutorials3246 how fast do you want to play?? I think double and triple tonguing are fast enough. If you want to play fast without dealing with the hassle of tonguing, though, then just slur the notes together.

Xternole I didn’t say triple tonguing isn’t fast I said it’s super hard to do and doesn’t sound quite right

@@artistictutorials3246 do you want clear sound with fast tonguing?

anchor tonguing may be faster, but it is not as clean as normal tonguing is. it has a signature "thw" thud sound to it, which is not suitable for all styles. my advice is you stick with the traditional way of tonguing

that’s a tenor

@@icyjam1687 thanks Bro you are awesome
