Ah yes, 16th notes at 144/minute.........the Nielsen Concerto. I recall that being the spot that bothered Denise Nigren back in the late '70s. He said he was working on that speed and his goal was to perform the Nielsen.....eventually.
Of course double tonguing doesn't "double" your speed, but it can get even an average player up to a professional speed. It should be taught to all students. One student of mine said, "I don't need that, I can single tongue that fast." God bless her.
