Finally an explanation of Doodle-tonguing that actually makes sense! Simple, easy to understand and explained with warmth and patience. Thanks Andrew.
I'm getting a real Mr. Rogers feel from you
I heard that Fred Rogers was a very good piano player, and that he liked jazz.
This is the best class about doodle tonguing.
Oh, my, God!!! So that is actually large bore horn... By Shires, in my neck of woods I guess. Maybe I should pay a visit to his factory soon.... it's not the horn you play, I know!!!! Someday, I'd like to sound just like you do when I get big!
Which I'm already in my late 40s, I don't know how much bigger I can get :-)
Thanks for reply, I'm looking forward to keep checking your new videos out,
so long!
Man, that was a killer lesson, my friend. Thanks so much for the great tutorial, I really do appreciate it.
Thank you for sharing simple routine one can make. I like to think constant fretting as an exploration of sound and a dedicated practice trains both hands and ears. Maybe keeping away from scales can in effect make learning sound less conformist and more intuitive. Trombone, I believe, is such a great tool that gives the mouth organ the freedom of articulation and expression... from the very origin of its birth. What a beautiful instrument for company in solitude.
Super ! C'est très bien expliqué et détaillé, merci beaucoup.
Translate Net : Great ! This is very well explained and detailed, thank you
Very good
I just started checking out that miles album! nice playing broski!
Hello may friends senkiy👍👍👍
I have a concern about tongue placement. Is the tongue hitting behind the teeth? or higher up on the gumline where it meets with roof? Thank you for your input. You're a cool teacher.
Thanks! Your teaching has been a big help to me. The standard way of teaching beginners is usually with long tones, but I've always had questions about this. Although long tones are an essential part of brass playing----why isn't doodle tonguing also taught right from the very beginning too? It sure appeals to me as a intermediate student. It sounds great, it feels great, it's inspiring and interesting. I am in favour of challenging accepted methods, such as never practice-buzzing on the mouthpiece! I have always hated buzzing. Christian Lindberg has a UA-cam video saying he never does it, and demonstrates why-----and one of the world's greatest trombonists ought to know!!
While you're right, that certain fundamental exercises can be a bit boring to do, I wouldn't necessarily blow off things like buzzing the mouthpiece completely. Sometimes, if you have trouble hitting a note or just can't quite get a certain phrase, it's often very helpful to me to to buzz it on the mouthpiece a couple times and then play it on the horn again.
In regards to your question about why doodle tonguing isn't taught from the start, for most people (including myself) it's fairly difficult and takes time to master. The beginning level has much more important things to go over, like tuning and tone, but if you're able to doodle tongue now that's a great skill to be able to have.
This is one of the best and most patiently explained video's for tonguing I've seen. Thank you so much for posting and sharing with us on You Tube. I really look forward to seeing more of your video's
I just discovered this clip, you have many, many wonderfully informative videos posted, I'm so grateful that I found them! Btw, would you tell me what kind of horn you're playing? It sounds awesome on you and I'm very curious about what it is. Looks to me a Getzen or Edwards custom large bore. If it is, and you're sounding
so jazzy and small/medium bore-ish, which just is amazing to me....
Thanks Hikaru! It's a Shires symphonic bore with a 5G mouthpiece. Sometimes I play smaller equipment though.
This really helped me, thanks.
Wow, amazing playing and phrasing at the beginning of the video
yes, Excellent Excellent Excellent vidéo ...
please more excercices for advance player
how to get speed ?
which book can help us ?
I haven't quite gotten to the stage to do this with my doodle tonguing, but I've heard that using the double and triple tonguing exercises from the arban's book but doodling them is a good way to get good speed.
Dooooodle the f ARBAN !!!!
WOW! Thanks for the lesson! As an army musician, i have been looking for someone to really break this down. Thanks for your time! It's time to start hit the PR with something thats going to add to my bag of tricks.
Great, Andrew! You're a fantastic player and instructor!
Thanks Clark, hope to see you again sometime.
I cannot begin to express my gratitude for this lesson. I've been kicking myself for over 30 years saying doodle rather than Tuh Dul Duh Dul Dah! My doodle was fast but terribly uncontrollable and impractical to use ,but your method has opened doors for me! Thank you so much

Excellent. This is the best explanation of the Doodle tongue I have ever seen! I understood and was able to follow it immediately! Thank you!
It's interesting that I can play doodle tonguing slow and fast but there is a middle area where I just can't seem to get it to work.
bruh put the vid speed to 1.25 and its less creepy at the start lol
Parabéns pelo longo tempo de estudo e ensino
Great Class! Thanks. (El subtituado en Español tiene errores)

Fantastic lesson, I finally got some clarity into this. I'm actually a trumpet player, but I want to master doodle tonguing either way. I'm however curious of how you manage to play the upper register with speed and flexibility using the doodle tongue, I find it hard to use my tongue to compress the air while still doodling. Any tips?
Great class Andrew and on a large bore horn, amazing ! Loved your long tone video. At the moment I am trying to improve my high register. It's taking quite a while and I am getting some digging in my right top lip so have to take regular rests. I am trying to take pressure off the right by pivoting slightly to the top left lip. Any input would be gratefully received. Thanks.
Hey Robert, thanks for the comments! I am planning on doing some high register stuff here on the UA-cam channel in the near future. I don't know if I can really address your particular issue except to recommend that you find a way to relax into the range expansion rather than forcing it. I could probably give you a lot more input if we had an online lesson if you wish to contact me : trombonepizzaATgmail
Excelente técnica de fraseo del jazz maestro saludos de Perú
Wow, thank you this really helped me out! I am incredibly grateful!! I have been beating my head against a wall for a while now.
Máster!!!
Máster muchas gracias por traducirlo en español !!!
Hi
En el minuto 5:53 es tahrah o tahdah?????
tah-dah-dah-dah-dah-dah-dah-dah-dah. tah-dul-dah-dul-dah-dul-dah-dul-dah.
Andrew Williams Gracias maestro.
Para tocar escalas también es igual??
Gracias!!! :)
Once you work your way up to scales, yes it is equal. Play them slowly and evenly.
Many thanks master. :)
Does your tongue go behind when you say "dul"? Thank you!
In fact,by me,there are three notes when pronouncing "tuh dul" in the trombone

ANNNNNDREW!!!....I was doing some late night Bob McChesney viewing and you popped up!! Hope all is well!!
Glad to know I am in the best possible company. Bob is a monster! All is well Reese, hope it is with you too
Bob is out of bound bro!!...I saw an interview with Bob done by Mike Davis (Rolling Stones). Hell of a nice guy!! I would love to meet him someday!! Things are ok with me!!..Hope to see or talk to you soon!!
Obrigado por ajudar !
This works as a distilled intro to the technique. McChesney is still the full resource and should be the destination for anyone who really wants to do this to the fullest.
But this a nice introduction which serves a good teaching purpose.
I love doodle tonguing. Weeeee
You sound like JJ
I can't understand this. I hear a sound but it never says how you achieve it. I can taddledaddle in the air at 200 bpm if I want. How does this link to vibrating the lips? What do you do with the air flow?
Great instruction, Andrew! It's funny -- I made a doodle-tonguing tutorial video about a week or so ago (if you're interested, it's ua-cam.com/video/ex11aKizr6Q/v-deo.html ) -- not so much for public consumption, but just because a friend asked me to help him with doodle tonguing -- but I didn't find yours until just now. I like the examples you give, of how to practice, with the 'fretted' playing, and "stuff that lies well on trombone." What cracks me up -- and I think you have a point -- is that you say "DON'T start with scales..." because that's exactly what I did, when I first learned to doodle. I saw Watrous give a clinic at the ITA in around '87, I think, and went home thinking, I have to learn how to do this! There being few (or no) books about it at the time, and no UA-cam or anything, I just decided to figure it out on my own, and I started with very slow scales, just kicking the metronome up a notch whenever the tempo started to get comfortable. It never occurred to me that scales (especially in the low register, where you have to do some faking, e.g., on a low B-flat scale) would not be the best material to start with! It did take time -- I wasn't able to use it on gigs until I'd been practicing for at least three months or so. I think your approach is better -- scales are just how I did it, figuring it out on my own. Great playing, I might add, on the intro and out-tro -- you really have that Fontana/Herwig thing going on much better than I do. Also, you do a great job illustrating that doodle is NOT just for legato -- you can get a lot more separation between notes than people tend to think! Nice work.
