Thanks Michelle for all yr great tutorials. Ive been taught by 3 teachers n I learned so much from 1 of yr video than years with them. Best of all u dont even charge... Thanks so much for all yr time n effort. . god bless.
Do you have any experience with students who are tongue-tied? I've been relearning and just cannot get tonguing down and I worry it's due to my being tongue-tied. :( Thanks for all your videos, they have been super helpful!
Oh this is a fun one to teach lol! But stick w it and explain -air is everything . Thanks enjoyed your vid. I wonder if we studied w the same person lol feels like I’m back there now as I watch !
Yes- make sure you are actually voicing that c correctly. Start thumb f. Nice and strong fast air , open relaxed throat as in “ahhh” then without them knowing, hit the register key. Then see where u are , if that f is sounding great, the c prob will too. Then step two f to high c, take OFF the register key while still trying to maintain that C. If they slip down to lower f , their tongue throat placement most likely too low, so practing high c w more open throat , ahhhh, ooooo, then eeeee( which will prob crack up to next partial)
Thanks for this video! Bassoonist and woodwind generalist here. I have noticed still in my own clarinet playing that the upper register staccato tonguing always has some kind of subtone quality even though I have been working on this stop tongue technique. Am I changing the shape of my tongue too much?
Ok Here is my lesson on tounging Practice a lot of "tenuto" style tounging. So the sound of interrupted as little as possible. Practice this a lot, a lot a lot. And much more will fall in place throught the years with all kinds of tounging.
Hi! Thank you so much for your videos...they are truly great and so helpful! During some of your videos… You have played some really cool licks and I was wondering if you have music for any of them?
Not for beginners - this is for perfecting air column which in turn you add tongue correctly. I’ve had college students going to conservatory or even colleagues that still don’t nail this.
Move your tongue faster when you lift and place it back on the reed. The "the" sound you are getting is probably the reed beginning to vibrate as you slowly get the tongue off of the reed. Hope that helps!
hello there, i dont mean to force my religion on you at all. but Jesus is the messiah. he is the lord and savior of the world. please turn to him and repent from your sins! let's worship the Lord together!! Amen! Glory to the Lord almighty
Thank you for your videos! What do you think about different tonguing ways? I use this one: I hit the reed by middle of my tongue,not by tip of my tongue.( the tongue tip touches the low teeth from the inside) Have you ever play this way?
Даша Кузьменко you’re describing something called “anchor tonguing”. I learned this way as well and was able to get by for many years, but as I progressed in other ways I found that it really inhibited my speed and clarity! I recommend retraining yourself to use the tip of the tongue. It will be very difficult at first but will become second nature in a matter of weeks. Good luck!

when she plays the clarinet i'm amazed like "wow! what a nice instrument" then i realize i play it too
I never tongued before this. I just searched up "how to tongue" and I found her videos. Very useful!

Patcaso Kam I agree
frick I've been tounging wrong my whole life.... I've always had my tounge touch the roof of my mouth not my reed.....😣
Playing clarinet while watching your awesome video! Thanks so much!

Thank you so much for sharing these videos. This will really help me teach my students.
Thank you!

This helped a lot, I never knew until you told me
That's funny, I've always done this. It's just how I did it naturally
Thank you for a great tutorial, Michelle!!
I'm glad this was helpful to you.
Hi, do you have any tips for doing this with a high C? I have a piece for honor band where I have 11 measures of staccatoed C’s and it sounds awful.
Same for me it sounds thumpy because of the high register and then I'll squeak it so frustrating
If you press further down on the reed it can make it clearer and easier to play higher notes
Yes- make sure you are actually voicing that c correctly. Start thumb f. Nice and strong fast air , open relaxed throat as in “ahhh” then without them knowing, hit the register key.

Muito bacana professora gosto da sua forma de ensinar.

Can you made video for those who already know that i mean things you are saying are for beginers
Not for beginners - this is for perfecting air column which in turn you add tongue correctly. I’ve had college students going to conservatory or even colleagues that still don’t nail this.
When I followed what you did it made a thu sound how do I fix that
Move your tongue faster when you lift and place it back on the reed. The "the" sound you are getting is probably the reed beginning to vibrate as you slowly get the tongue off of the reed. Hope that helps!
Won’t this make them even stiffer? Teaching them to press harder on the read with the thong?
I still don't get how to tongue
lilah long do you know now
Robert twist nope.😂😂
Watch again and pay close attention.
Well you get your tongue and put your tongue on the reed till the clarinet doesn't make sound
Insightful
her reed is so redXD
Is tha blood on the reed? O_o
Flavio Tapia maybe lipstick

every time I lift my tongue from the reed I squeak at the start of the note
Remember, it's not the tongue that starts the note, it's the air! Try to bring the tongue back more quickly and keep up the air support.
Backun Musical Services thank you
So clean and easy explanation. Thank you for such a great job.
What do you use to get such good audio?
Also what is that clarinet? It looks expensive (probably is)
Villager #22 she’s using a Backun MoBa clarinet.
Would this help on the saxophone as well?
Thank you for your videos!

Practice this stop....
I’ve been tonguing with my tongue hitting the roof of my mouth, instead of the reed. Is there a diffrence?
John Is some random dude yes one is correct and one isn’t lol
