Re: single tonguing

I personally think you/we should learn to double tongue if you want to hit anything over the 132 mark. Most players can't reach speeds over that, so double tonguing seems perhaps slightly realistic if you want to attempt to hit 160 or come close to this mark. Off hand I can't think of a single person that can hit 180, but there probably is some genius or geniuses that can.

It is for sure cool not to set limits, therefore this goal will sometime be met by many, not just a few. As composers challenge players limits we will surely see the players accept and reach new goals.
