Learning the technique for double and triple tonguing can be very useful! What are your strengths and weakness when tonguing? Let me know down below in the comments! Be sure to like and subscribe if you haven't already! Check out single Tonguing Video as well!
When tonguing I would say I’m above average for my age and/or time of playing the flute but I just tried double and triple tonguing and definitely have trouble with getting the sounds right with my embouchure, even without my embouchure.
my teacher my tongue is quite hard and stress while playing the Mozart....
When I single tongue from the low notes to high the position of where my tongue presses moves, am I doing something incorrect or is it ok? . I think when I'm moving to the high notes my jaw is probably moving forward which is then moving my tongue towards my lips.
4:58 if you master it slowly, you can master it quickly
Is that from two set violin? Owo
Warrior Asteroid “If you can play it slow, you can play to fast.”
Genevieve Mathews it’s “if you can play it slowly than you can play it quickly “
Thank you for this. !

OMG I FEEL SO STUPID I'VE BEEN SINGLE TOUNGING OVERTURE FROM CARMEN AT LIKE 140 BPM. NO WONDER IT'S BEEN HELL LOL
Same that's why I looked this up 😭
DUDE IK IVE BEEN SINGLE TOUNCHING CHAMINADE RHIS ENTIRE TIME
I get really tongue-tied when I try to triple-tongue or double-tongue with strange rhythms, even without my flute. Do you have any tips for this?
im quite late :D but this happened to me!! Somehow id get confused when i double tongued even on scales as in ‘what do i do next’ and I’d get lost in the pattern. what basically fixed the problem overnight was forcing myself to very very slowly double tongued certain passage and bring it up to speed. i realised that as soon as i could double tongue that passage, i didn’t have that problem with anything anymore. hope this helps!!!
I'm a flutist but also a speech therapist, so from a linguistics perspective, substituting D for T and G for K as in duh guh instead of tuh kuh builds up less air pressure behind your tongue and would be easier for people who are struggling to just say (without their flute) tuh kuh tuh kuh.
Also, Amelie warned us to not break the airstream with tonguing, and that reminder might help you a lot if your tonguing breaks down. Finally, a speech exercise for tongue coordination improvement is to practice tonguing using different emphasis patterns like: TUH kuh and tuh KUH, or for triple tonguing --
TUH kuh tuh,
tuh KUH tuh,
tuh kuh TUH,
and even KUH tuh TUH for triple tonguing an accented note.
Thanks for the great exercises, Amelie!
I just got an expander put in my mouth. Kinda gross but like my mouth isnt automatically swalling spit so like i have to manually do it. that and the expander itself make double tonguing rlly rlly hard.
Why is this channel so under rated? Dude you're awesome.
Awww thanks so much! Tell every flutist you know! Share videos. Word of mouth goes a long way! but thanks for the kind words! - Amelie
She wrote her name for you to see that she is not a dude but a dudette.
I love this!!! I’m a flute player and just discovered this channel and i feel like I’ve found my paradise !!! Thanks for these tutorials, I’ll have to check out everything else!
awesome! happy practicing!
hi
I am a indian bamboo flute player. I hv been practising with the techniques shown in the video for past two months and it hs helped me immensely in getting a good tone while tonguing. my blowing hs improved over all
thank you so much
love and regards from India
I'm starting high school band next year and I've been practicing circular breathing and double tonguing. I LOVE your account so much
Brilliant. After 30 years and playing up to Grade 6/7 when I was 16, it's time to start learning again 👍
Man, this helped me so much! Thank you! I could already (kinda badly but whatevs its just cuz im a beginner) do double tounging after learning the "kuh" motion!
I play the flute too and I will use your KTK to play Tambourin the last part
I love your skills Thank you 😍
Great lesson, many thanks.
Thanks for sharing! I'll try this. 😍👍🏼
Muito Boa as dicas,vou começar a praticar desse jeito.Obrigado por compartilhar seu conhecimento conosco.🌷
That seems so difficult! I used to play the cornet, years ago, and couldn't get the hang of double tonguing!
Thank you. Your videos are so helpful!
My pleasure!
That was pretty informative
I tying this and share this with my teacher 😊
Thank you! Cod you perhaps do a video on building lip endurance? That is something I struggle with.
Extra!! Je vais m'entrainer car je ne connaissais pas le d g juste le t k. Merci
Hi Amelie! Thank you again so very much for this video! For triple tonguing, your suggestion to practice "KTK KTK KTK" has been invaluable to me. It makes practicing "TKT TKT TKT" so much easier. "KTK KTK KTK" was really difficult for the first few days, but now it's become much easier in a remarkably short period of time. Thank you!!! I feel like I should send you TONS of money for all of the great advice you've given me. How do I repay you? I'm so appreciative of your help!
Mighty kind of you! Will be rolling out more things that you may find useful in the future. If you ever want online lessons contact us on Instagram or email for details.
There's a wonderful article that deals with French pronunciation and how it affects flute playing. This includes the controversy between 't' 'k' and 'd' 'g' among other things.
The reference is: Valette, Rebecca M. “The French School: What is so French about It?” The Flutist Quarterly 36, no. 1 (Fall 2010): 22-35.
the analysis is interesting, to say the least, thanks for sharing!
This is amazing. Thank you! I will practice this. ❤ 🪈 🎶
I am learning indian bamboo flute, but the tounging techniques were very helpful, thank you.
So glad I could help! thanks for watching!
Hi Amelie!
how fast can a master like yourself go with triple tongueing?
I am a newbie and my best is about 150 sets of "tkt" each minute
But one problem I am facing is when I go really fast, the actual sound plays for lets say a millisecond or so, when the interval between my tongue touching the roof two times is say 3 millisecond.
I do blow constantly tho.
So when I just take my tongue off the roof, no sound (the air does not resonate and goes shshshs) for a millisecond, correct sound sounds for a millisecond and then again no sound (just shshsh sound) for a millisecond, and then the tongue touches the roof again...
As a result the sounds kind of feel unnatural as a good proportion of the blowing goes into "kshshhh"
So what proportion of the time between each time the tongue hits the roof should the air be resonating?
I know it is not a full 100 but I don't know how much is acceptable either...
And finally I simply love the intuitive ways you teach the flute- Thank you so much for such A wonderful channel!
Thank you so much for the tips! I've always struggled with double tonguing and I've never even attempted triple tonguing, so your suggestions have been invaluable to me.
My pleasure Diann! All the best! Thanks for watching!
I even cant say ktk ktk ktk with normal speed 😅
🤣🤣🤣..me either!!!!
saame !!!

I'm a student studying flute in Korea. I have a question [What is the difference between 'takataka' and 'tukutuku'???]
The Flute Channel thank you😆😆
There is no real difference when you play the flute. The tongue should be in the same place when you tongue with any vowel. We say a vowel when we talk but when we play the articulation it is the consonant that matters most.
Hi when do we use this double and triple tonguing method? Btw love ur channel! Keep up the work!! 😘😘
It was helpful thank you I love your video
my pleasure pedro!
Thank you 🙏 for the technique ☺️
You're welcome Rick!
Thank you Master, very clear
Glad to hear that
The best CZcams channel on CZcams
omg thanks so so much! Tell all your flute friends! :)
Gostei muito é aprendi, com a aula do TKT ,quero aprender mais
Brings back memories. Very nice video. But there is a lot more to it.
you gotta start somewhere ;P
Thank you. Very well done, but why dont you not alternate between the shapes when triple tonguing? Like TKT KTK TKT KTK etc. Wouldn t that be more efficient? Greetings.
Yikes this is hard but I'm practicing!!!!!
Great to hear, keep up the great work!
Thank you!
really happy I could help!
Didl is the baroque king, he’s very subtle 🌞
Hi mam I am from India.When I am tounging particularly which things I have to used I.E my toung or my epiglottis ?
It is much more easier than TKT😊
Tkx Amelie! :)
No problem!
This is a great help, but how do you get such a precise sound on the la or my, mine is very fuzzy or blurring in sound ( Not sure how you would word that)
Could you say a bit more, I don't know which note you mean?
@@flutechannel A Bb above staff and so on. I just started doing the double tounging and the ka part doesnt seem to stick out or have articulation as much at the tu
Thank you by the way
Try to check with a mirror while playing and see if there is any movement out of the ordinary. Also blow plenty of air as well. also practice the ka all by itself until you achieve what you like and then put it back in with the tu. hope that helps!
@@flutechannel thank you so much
Hi, I am K, I find it difficult to produce the Ka with an open throat, is that normal?
Knowledge is good take it
Are the "t"s, the simple tounging, the speaking t or the "blow a raspberry" one? I only ever learned the latter.
Making t-k-t-k... at a such time I loose coordination, do I have to accostume the brain disposition? I practic e with the 4th variation of the Chopin variations and Czardas by Monti.
Thank you so much! Using these exercise has allowed me to double and triple tongue clearly for the first time. I am doing this slowly, but I am sure it will become faster overtime. Of course, double tonguing is faster and easier for me. I honestly thought I would never be able to triple tongue and so I surprised myself. Thank you again.❤ 🎶
Very nice madam
thanks amelie i'm gonna practice that!
yay! let me know about you progress in the coming weeks!
ok, for sure thanks
hey amelie, in the past weeks i have improved in a quite impressive manner thanks to you,my tongue has become really fast though i still have some struggles (in the beggining i was hitting the notes way too strong and i realise that my notes were cracking but now i'm getting it very smooth, "it's so cool to articulate with d-g-d-g", so, for now, I'm practicing slower in order to get coordination with my hands and use support. do you have any exercises to improve speed equality on finger mainly on pinky and ring fingers? thank you so much we have helped me a lot.
🙏
I've been playing flute for at least 3 years now and I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't know this existed
Can i use Ta Ga instead of Ta Ka, so my back strokes is the equal strong with the front strokes.
It's not the usual way to do it. It's a matter of articulation and projection of the note. Also, Ta Ga causes fatigue to most people than ta ka would. I think will make a video all about articulation soon. But also maybe you could think Da Ga instead of Ta Ga.
@@flutechannel Oh ok i will try
I just started crying because i can't do it because i don't understand the placement of the tounge while actually blowing air into the flute while doing the tktk and dgdg
How much time it takes exactly to be perfect learned always if I practise daily?
About a month for double tonguing is what I notice for most people.
Im just confuse. What is the difference between single tonguing and double or triple tonguing? Does it have a different music symbol on music sheet for when to use a specific tonguing? And based on what I watch on youtube, do you use double tonguing if you are articulating semi quavers?
I think it just helps to play faster
I cant say tuhkuhtuh quickly even without my flute... is this a problem ;.; i tried doing it on my flute but i cant transition between the tuh and kuh easily.. in fact im not sure if i can even make the kuh sound properly.. can you give me some tips on how to know whether my tonguing is correct and ways to improve if it isnt please?
can't say much unless I can actually hear and see you.
@@flutechannel oh 🙁 thanks anyways i love ur channel 💗 keep up the good work heheh
but watch our videos about articulation, etc. Im sure it will help! Happy pracitcing! @@universeinneverland2314
很好的評頻道
謝謝
Hi I’m doing grade 7 band and I’m playing flute and I don’t want to spend too much money on a flute (maximum $200 but around $150 would be better). I still want the flute to sound good when I play it and last a while do you have any recommendations?
I would look used, maybe if your lucky a Yamaha 222 or 221 series on ebay could be good.
The Flute Channel thank u so much❤️
Omggg.Very difficult
БЛАГОДАРЯ АМЕЛИ...
no problem!
When is the best time to.use double tounguing
R thanking you Flute channel. I keep watching you and practising.☺
Your such an amaizing Flute player how you go up and down those scales with such speed an precision.
Not forgetting you are an expert.☺ Brilliant.Thanking you for all your videos.🎶🎼
Double tonguing is used routinely in flute music. It all depends on your abilities. I know some people whose single tonguing is as fast as my double tonguing. It all depends on the situation with the music. Its a useful tool.
I didn't understand abut tkt tkt and dgd
How do u do it so good I can’t even do it 😢
Horse Lover practiceeeeee
🙏How many times per second for fastest single tonguing?
🙏How many times per second for fastest double tonguing ?

How to know by my self what i did TA KA TA KA correctly or not
record your self doing the technique. also it should become easier after a while to articulate. Eventually, you might need a teacher for a few lessons to verify.
@@flutechannel I did it by say Tu Cu Tu Cu it is ok or not ?
@@thebestmusicsheets Its more Ta Ka but you can use Tu Cu. I would learn both as they have subtle differences.
Thanks you . and change to Cu Tu Cu Tu, Ka Ta Ka Ta also .
Me trying to play Kirby song slur the whole thing XC
Anybody else trying to learn Czardas? :D
I love that one! Maybe I'll make a video of that one.
@@flutechannel oooh that would be awesome!!
Beautiful babe 💖
I’m learning da ga
Soooooo hard xc
I got a simply piano add before this NOOOOO 😔
oh nooooooooooo
You know forget what people I’m gonna do it even notice see what they think. Probably is he speaking some kind of foreign language lol 😂
are you French?
Oh, and another tip, don't think of the tongue as one muscle. T you should use the tip of your tongue to the roof and k use the back
