You make it seem so effortless and easy to do, dammit!! Lol. Seriously, worth every milli-second of my (or any self respecting trumpet player’s) time to watch.

i for some reason cannot figure the ka part out its just not working I'm making a c noise and nothing happens.

[@RidgewoodSchoolofMusic]

That can be the trickiest part. Sometimes it helps to really focus on only the "ka" and over-exaggerate the burst of air from the back of the throat, first without the trumpet, then with the trumpet. As you start to be able to create that harsher articulation you can pull it back and try to make it a little more subtle. Hope that helps! It always takes a little time and consistent practice.

0:20 My thoughts were closer to something like, "of course this MF-er has a skull with multiple fake tongues."

[@rengarcia5189]

What?? Ta, Ka?? The way I was taught to tongue since I was in grade school was to stuff the tip of my tongue into the bore of my mouthpiece. I've never been able to tongue very fast.

Extremely helpful bob but I'll need more help on the double or triple tonguing and I'll love it if you could be my teacher

[@denniskrigger]

What about people with splitted tongue?

[@tjwtrumpet]

Any hints for improving cleanliness in DT & TT larger intervals like 4ths?
