Re: So how do YOU...

IMO, the Bartered Bride is in it's own category. The other pieces on David's list are quite easy and come nowhere near the 152 or higher mark needed for the Bartered Bride. I have never heard anybody tongue that fast for that long. Sure I can do about 2 beats, but the whole thing? Not saying it can't be done, just never heard it. In the piece itself it is feasable to add slurs and I am sure most people do. I heard Drucker do it; HE added slurs. I have heard great stories of David Blumberg's fast tongue here on the BB, but never actually heard it. I would love to hear him or anybody really tongue it as written, single tongued, and sound good or at least decent doing it. Just sayin...
