On reed-up and tonguing, David Glenn noted:

<<<The whole repertoire of tonging styles seems to be different with the
reed up. I think one could maybe learn something about the articulation of
the time (of Mozart) by experimenting with it. >>>

I have never been able to play well with the reed up. I had a friend in
college, though, who was a spectacular player that sounded pretty much the
same either way.

His primary instrument was/is oboe, however. I suspect that reed-up
tonguing is much like double-reeding. Some folks do it quite nicely.
