A new, and hopefully more informative video on how to do double, and TRIPLE tongue on the clarinet.
Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
Please leave questions in the comments if you have any! :)
Out of all the double tonging for either clarinet or saxophone, your description is the best....Great video... Ohhhh btw, when you're giving a great lesson....you are NEVER wasting ours or your time.....Great video...Thank you..
😊
Thanks for your nice and clear recommendations. After 37 years of playing clarinet as a professional, I think it is time to try it seriously. Thanks again !
Best of luck!
This is, without a doubt, the best video on the entire internet explaining the double tongue!!! Thank you so much
Brilliant! Thank you for making this seem possible, (and making it so funny... because my efforts right now really aren't!) :-) *update, I only just noticed that you have supplied the sheet music drills you have been working from freely for download. That's amazing and so very kind of you!!! Thank you so Much :-)
Happy to help! Best of luck with the practice!
Win Swarr. I've been playing clarinet for about 70 years and find that I am not able to single tongue as well as I once could. I have been experimenting with double tonguing using it for things like William Tell Overture. You have provided some excellent suggestions for practice which I will plan to implement once my concerts are finished in a few weeks. I am looking forward to a summer of improving my double and triple tonguing. Thanks
Best of luck!
Very nice to see this, and very clear explication of how to do double and triple tongue!
Keep up with the videos!
Greetings from Portugal
Thank you Manuel! 😁
You probably dont care but if you are stoned like me during the covid times you can stream pretty much all the new movies on instaflixxer. Have been watching with my gf for the last few months :)
@Carl Kaiden yup, I've been watching on InstaFlixxer for months myself :D
I am sticking with you from now on. I am learning the recorder and it works just as well. Clear and the progressions are in the right sized steps. Thank you.
Best of luck!
Thanks so much for this! I'm definitely going to add this to my practice routine
Happy to hear you liked it! Best of luck!
Great video. I shall try all of this and see how it goes
Wow blev prenumerant nr 1000. Grattis och tack för dina videos 🥳✌️🇸🇪❤️👍
Tack själv!
We were taught degedegedege.. this keeps the he he he tongue position w which facilitates air flow. Thank you for this great video!
Happy to help! :)
Usted es un excelente Maestro de Clarinete. Mi hija de 10 años estudia Clarinete, ahora si se como enseñarle el Staccato doble y triple. Thank you so much
Thank you for the kind words! Happy to help! :)
¡Gracias por las amables palabras! ¡Feliz de ayudar! :)
(Google translate, hope it's correct...)
Yes, it's correct your words. God bless you
thank you! Looking forward for more.
Thanks! Happy you like it!
Thanks Emil for your advices 😊👏👏👏👏
Happy to help!
wow you double & Triple very well . i will do try your solution! thank you
Good luck! 😁
I have been wanting to do this shit for years....now with your help... it's time to get serious.
Go go go!
excellent présentation! Just the right balance between playing and talking.
Thank you!
I am new, but understand, and will try your method. Thanks.
Best of luck! :)
Thank you for this instruction. I'm still unclear as to which part of the tongue is used for the 'ka' sound. The ta is the tip; is the ka further up?
Say "Ka" in the same way you would say the beginning of "carrot". Works for me at least. :) Good luck!
Nice video! Nice playing too!
Thanks!
Wow! Respect 😲😲😲🥳🥳🥳👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎶🎶🎶
Excelente explicação! Vou estudar lento para um dia conseguir, obrigado mestre! Sou de Pernambuco Brasil.
De nada, boa sorte!
Excelente!. Like y suscrito 🙏
you should review the new Dickerson Resonator Ligaturek -it's a game changer
Very nice and well explained. Your simple tonguing also sounds very good. I’ve been playing for 6 years, and just recently i’ve found out i was anchor tonguing, so i needed to start learning again how to tongue. I begun to tongue on the very tip of the reed because i find that it sounds better, especially in the high register, even though i find it less confortable as a tongue position. I’m curious about your technique, how hard do you press when you tongue, especially when you do staccato? Do you adjust the tong pressure when going upwards? I tried tonguing lower on the reed, but it squeaks a lot and it’s harder to control. What advantages do you think your technique has over the “tip of the reed” style?
Happy you like the video!
I press very lightly with the tip of my tongue, trying to hit the reed quite close to the tip, but moving further down the reed as I play higher notes. I agree with you that it is more difficult, but if you focus more on what air you're using rather than where the tongue is hitting the reed, you will accomplish a much bigger control over the articulation. In other words: practice by playing short notes as long as possible, with as close to the tip of your tongue for a higher precision. Especially in high registers. It is more difficult, yes, but in the end you will gain a much higher control of your articulation.
Good luck!
Understood, thank you! 🤝
In 5th grade band best in my lesson group going to try learning this
Hope they succeded!
Você é fantástico!
That's nice. How do you perform the Klezmer effect bend? Very nice
Dropping the jaw, dropping the tongue, flattening the clarinet angle to a more "oboe-like" angle. And KEEPING THE AIR. ;D

jokes aside great video, i’ll be sure to try this soon :)
Best of luck!
Me, learning to do this so I can try to play Rush E like a god: 👁👄👁
Sounds like a good challenge!
Already learned it😄 it's pretty fun
For me, its the Rossini Introduction, Theme, and Variations. Not just the finale, but also the 2nd variation as well
very clever
Excellent video! Very good explanation. Are there any clarinettists who use the "ka" sound primarily instead of the "ta"? If not, why not?
Thank you!
I don't think so, mainly because the "ta" is much more precise, clearer and easier to produce than the "ka".
hi, emil, i have been stuck in the glissando problem (9.10 min) for a few months. now i have found your video, and i want to know if you have any advice. thnx for your your videos!
Hi!
I'm happy you like my videos!
Do you mean that the "k-sound" sounds too glissando-ish? If so, try perhaps a harder reed. It will demand more from your support, but it will make it easier to play the "k-sound". :) Hope it helps!
many thanks! I let pass a few weeks of testing , and I have really solved it. It was the cane (very soft), and to that I added a work very consciously of the "k ', trying to move as little as possible the tongue. I thank you very much for your help and your videos. Greetings from the quarantine in Argentina. I hope you are well in your country.
Great video Emil...Cheers! Just wondered is Page 8 missing ? exercises 93 and 97 ? Good wishes, Paul
Thanks Paul!
The pages and bar numbers differ from the video, as I constructed the PDF afterwards... But all the exercises should be there nevertheless.
Best of luck!
For the tonguing pattern, could I use Da Ga da ga, instead of ta ka ta ka.
Whatever works best! :)
yes
Hi Emil!!! Great stuff. Another bit of articulation: double and triple tonguing. This tests out my hypothesis which is that; "You should NOT be playing music at a speed, beyond your sight reading speed". So my question to you(and that would speed up my conclusion proof or disprove of the above hypothesis), is: "When you play at such immense speeds, are you reading and articulating the score sheet music ie. All of the written notation? Reply asap. Inwira.X.
When I sightread alone I try not to play faster than I can control everything (rhythm, articulation etc). After that I slowly bring it up to speed.
@@EmilJonason
Great thanks for feedback but just to clarify; once you bring it up to speed you are still sight reading, yes? Inwira.X.
Hello dear friend, thank you very much for the information, but I have a question about the triple tongue, can this articulation also be applied on a scale of tenths??? And what other exercises can be practiced!!!! thank you so much
I would say that this could of course be applied to ANY scale. But the higher you go, and the larger the intervals between the notes get, it will be more challenging. 😉
UPDATE: I have made a PDF companion to this video. Can be found here:
emiljonason.se/wp-content/uploads/Double_and_triple_tongue_exercises_by_EmilJonason_2020.pdf
Hi! Emil. Great video. Please could you tell me what mouthpiece do you use? I like your sound. Thank you
Thanks! I play a James Kanter, standard facing. :)
Let us hear you demonstrate double tonguing repeatedly on C, two ledger lines above the staff, at various speeds. This is where the clarinet is hard to "ka." And then of course on the notes above that.
Hi! Sorry, I don't have time right now to put something new up. But I would recommend to keep working slowly up the register and use a lot of air in combination with the muscles on the sides of the mouth. And yes, it's tough way up there, and often easier to do double-tonguing faster than slower when you play those high notes. :)
I can’t play high notes whenever I do I use enough air when I do it on my brothers clarinet it works
I think it’s because of the reed I think he used 3/5 I use 2/5
Stronger reeds make it easier to play a higher pitch, at the same time as it demands more from the player in terms of - as you say - more air. And a stable embouchure... ;)
when i perform the K sound does the abdomen/diaphragm move? But does the abdomen or diaphragm move on the T sound?
I would ju definitely yes for my part, since I need to really push more air for the K-sound than for the "regular" T-sound.
Hi, Is there a pdf of the exercises? From the video it looks as if there might be!
Hello!
I'll fix one and put a link in the description. I just took some screenshots of my doodling in the Sibelius software, but I'll compile them in a day or two. Stay tuned! :)
@@EmilJonason Fantastic! You're video on double tonguing is the best out there! Emphasis on continuity of air and an extra push on "k". I'm sure these are key. Also you have eliminated words which are not needed :-)
Thanks so much. The PDF is really helpful.
Emil Jonason can’t access the PDF, it says page not found 🙁
@@musokid89 Check the link in the description instead, just tried it and it should work. Sorry, didnt realise the other link wasn't working.
What BG ligature are you using? You sound great!
I'm using the cheapest, standard leather one. Have tried the lot and this works best for me.
And thanks! :)
Bra info😃 tack
Lycka till!
how do i make the tongue go faster, like i still cant do double tongue
Sorry to give a boring answer, but start slow and with a lot of patience... 😉
Can you give a tutorial on how to perfect the chromatic scale
I'll write it down on my to-do-list! :)
what is on the lower tooth ? to play clarinet better ?
It's Rizla paper, to protect my lips. :)
What fingering do you use for high B in the 3rd octave C scale?
Difficult to explain here, perhaps I will try to make another video to explain it with visual aids/PDF. In the meantime, check out this page: www.wfg.woodwind.org/clarinet/
thank you so much
Happy to help! :)
Rush E has brought me here 💀
Hahaha!
Hello. For sax players it "doo-goo"? Sorry for my english
Hi! I don't know actually, go with what you think sounds best. "Ta-ka" is more clear on the clarinet than "doo-goo". Perhaps it's the same on saxophone.
How is it possible to give an extra puff of air on the KA when the articulation is fast?
It kind of happens automatically as you increase the speed of the articulation. The goal of practicing KA slowly is to focus on the actual sound a KA produces, which in turn makes all the KA sound more relaxed and effortless at a higher tempo. Good luck! :)
@@EmilJonason Thanks for takin 4th trouble to reply. That's amazing!
The pdf doesn't work. Please fix!!!
Fixed! :)
Muito bom!!
:)
Do you tongue the Ka
I "KA" the KA. ;)
So many videos with some good content..then a lot of "look at me"
0:44 whats that on the teeth?
Folded Rizla paper! To protect my lip from biting...
@@EmilJonason Interesting.
Thanks for asking.
And in french, it means "shit" lol
And in Swedish, the number 9, "neuf", in French is the exact same sound that a pig does. :D
What's going on with your front lower teeth?
It's folded Rizla (cigarette paper) to protect my lip. Can't play without it. :)
@@EmilJonason Thanks for the reply. Too bad you need that. Maybe you're playing too much!
Reminds me of when I was in college band/orchestra. When I was a freshman I played second chair first clarinet. During rehearsals for a concert our director heard my clarinet making clicking noises. It was a cheap instrument that I had used for nine years. Great guy that he was, he had a friend who owned a music store and he got the guy to loan me a better clarinet on the (false) premise that I might want to buy it. It was a new Selmer Series 9 -- $400 clarinet in 1968, so no way I could buy it.
Man, I had no idea that playing a clarinet could be so wonderful! The tone, the feel, the ease, the clear B-flat, and of course, no clicking. I grabbed all the sheet music I could find and went into a practice booth. I was sitting there playing for seven hours. I couldn't quit. Finally, they made me leave when the building closed. My lower lip and gums were bleeding. Boy, did I HATE having to give that marvelous instrument back after the concert! If I had had that clarinet since I was 10, who knows, I might have ended up as good as you.
So to justify the length of this comment, some good advice: if any parent out there sees that your kid is showing some promise, don't let him/her keep playing a cheap, lousy horn for years. Find a way to fork out what's needed for a higher quality instrument.
7:44 caca
Yup, understood.
7:48 and in italian poop 😀
So I hear... :)
This guy can't teach, but he can play
