RE: [Hornlist] Re: Flutter-tonguing
Thank you Kathy. I've been a bit surprised at the response to my little note on flutter tongueing - mostly off line. Most things are simple once you understand the right way to do them - including horn playing.

Wow, it works! I've never been able to flutter tongue until now, and your right. It is simple. THANKS! Kathy Anaheim, CA -Original Message- Simply try to hold the front part of your tongue against the roof of your mouth with the right amount of light pressure and blow. The tongue flutters. It takes a little practice, but it is really quite simple. ___ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/loren%40mayhews.us ___ post: [email protected] unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
RE: [Hornlist] Re: Flutter-tonguing
I learned to flutter tongue while preparing for our Russian Tour. A linguist taught me how to roll the Rs so I could pronounce some of the Russian sounds. From there, it was easy to flutter tongue. I'm convinced anyone can learn to flutter tongue unless they are determined to prove to you they can't do it. At least the way I do it. Simply try to hold the front part of your tongue against the roof of your mouth with the right amount of light pressure and blow. The tongue flutters. It takes a little practice, but it is really quite simple. Thant being said, nobody has been able to teach me to curl my tongue. Can't do it. No way. Nor can I wiggle my ears, but my dad can.

Fortunately, we played Karel Husa's Music for Prague my first semester. After six weeks of struggling to do the numerous flutter tongued passages, it happened, and I've been able to flutter tongue ever since.
