arh -
I'll agree with you for 99.9% of the repertoire. However, there's a number of new and/or avant-garde pieces that require such techniques as multiple tonguing, slap tongue, multiphonics, circular breathing, etc.. To <i>avoid</i> learning those techniques is to deny yourself the opportunity to play such pieces. Such techniques aren't for the beginner or intermediate student (we've got enough to learn already!) but as an advanced student it's something to work on.

Mike - I remember that you're working on and performing modern music at the grad level. Any thoughts?
