I'll say this - Frost played it in the "difficult key" instead of the much easier one that starts on E (his was F)

The double tonguing was just ok.

is this sort of technique becoming the norm?!!

For me, I think Martin Frost is not only technically phenomenal but so damn creative in what he chooses (or for that matter has the opportunity to do so) to do and play. I'm envious. He's a total inspiration- playing wise.

But now, forgive my ignorance if I should know them, but Alexey Gorokholinsky and Chen Halevi.....Where are these techniques coming from?

Stuart,
It probably started with the like of Robert Spring whose extended technique was used in more contemporary music where multiphonics, microtonal scales, triple tonguing and circular breathing can be necessary.

People like him experiment with the instrument and can show us that the unthinkable is doable. Now, it is slowly becoming mainstream and it seems to me that the past 10 years has seen an explosion of the more modern techniques into the standard repertoire.

It is not uncommon to see Frost, Bliss or Carbonare use circular breathing or multiple tonguing in something like Mozart concerto.

Gigliotti was on a doubletonguing kick back in the mid 80's, and Charlie Neidich has been teaching his students that stuff for many, many year.

I would disagree with this comment on the double tonguing. Many times one hears double tongue in a smooth fashion. In this situation the articulation is hard , non legato and IMO appropriate for the music. In any case......spectacular music for the ears and eyes.
