How to Use the Arban Single Tongue Exercises, for euphonium, trumpet, trombone, or tuba

[@MrTBoneMalone]

Perfect example of how good private instruction helps us to see what we simply overlook as novice players. Just having something like this posted to KZbin is invaluable as a learning tool. Thanks for sharing Mr. Werden.

Great video, thanks for sharing. I have found it easy to skip over these exercises without being aware of what I can actually use them for. Lovely horn as well

Hey! I play euphonium too and also my range is 6 octaves.

Jesus I thought my 5 was good, how? I can go double pedal Bb to High Bb.

Thanks for your excellent help and playing.

Very helpful, from me in Australia. I put you at 112 bpm on the first exercise. What speed should a player aspire to in single tounging before having to go over to double lounging?

[@dwerden]

There is no good answer, because individual players differ in physical characteristics. I'd say 120 as a general rule. My own single tongue USED to be good to 132 or a little higher, but as I got better with double-tongue, I didn't even try single at those speeds.

What edition of the Arban book were you using?

[@Pierre777-]

#19 slow tempo 2:32-3:17

[@jrphartley]

Excercise 19? Not in my book.

[@dwerden]

Maybe your book is numbered differently, but that seems odd. There are several sections, though, each with its own numbering.
