Re: Improving speed of Articulation

Ok, with one notable area missed on the list of things NOT covered when away from the horn - coordination with the fingers:

You can fairly replicate the system for double tonguing by aiming the tip of your tongue to the very center and very bottom edge of your top teeth; with your mouth open you can practice: lightness of pressure of the tongue on the teeth (no more force that the "Ts" as you'd say the word ARTICULATE); speed of leaving the teeth and returning; speed and coordination with the "KEE" side of the house.

This will all look and sound weird to a casual observer, so don't try this at work if you need the income :-)
