+Payton Reingardt Most likely you need to use more air. Try practicing blowing air through a straw (or the back of your mouthpiece) while fluttering. Once you do this, it should be easier on the trumpet. More airflow should help!!
is it true you need to be able to roll your R's? we're playing rhapsody in blue and I'm playing 3rd cornet-2nd trumpet by jumping around and each part requires it.
+trumpetgirl In order to flutter tongue, the tip of the tongue is what is fluttering. When you roll your R's, typically it is your uvula that makes the sound.
I can't even do it w/o my trumpet! My tongue is not flexible, I can't roll my "r"s or anything, how am I supposed to do that? Do u curl the tongue against your teeth? I still don't know
I am playing Cheerleader by OMI for my band and need a fluttered tounge at the end. I am one of 3 people who need to do this but I can not flutter tounge!! I can sort of make the sound through the trumpet but then the sound is not strong enough. How do I fix this?
Ya it is very difficult because you are on the spot and need to be able to do it!!! I would suggest if someone near you in the band can do it then just play either a whole note of the same note or a bunch of staccatos depending on the song
I accidentally taught myself how to fluttertongue a while back. The key is to push a lot of air through and roll your tongue like you’d roll your r’s, it takes some practice but I’d recommend getting it right by just buzzing it before you play it on the trumpet.
just wanted to comment and say thanks it was pretty frustrating but I figured it out and it only took me a day too woo thank you for your help you're a great teacher i think I'll watch more of your videos now
This is the one time being a spanish speaker actually helped me inside America
Spanish is my first language and I can’t roll my r’s
I thought everyone could do this tho
I NEED THIS FOR TWO MEASURES IN ONE SONG. I GIVE UP
I'm in beginner band, first try it freely in plain air to get the feel of it. After a while,move to the mouthpiece.
I keep trying all day everyday it's so hard! I just don't get how to do it. SOS.
I can roll my r's but I can not seem to make it sound through my trumpet. How can i fix this?

IT'S TOO BEAUTIFUL!!!
Thank you beginner player but there’s a part in the song when the saints go marching in this would be a useful technique

I just can't I can't!!!I give up
I know it's really hard
Me either. I play horn and I have a solo in band with a flutter I really need to get this down
try playing a note and rolling your tongue whilst playing the note.
same
Same dude
I've never tried this as an exercise, maybe will help me in not tighten in the high register
I’ve been a trumpet player for 6 years I can’t do this lol I tried but I can roll my R’s
It`s VERY VERY! PERFECT!! RIGHT!?

If I can't roll my r's, will I be unable to flutter tongue?
Possibly. Just keep working on it. It might happen over night!
IT'S TOO GOOD! ! !
I can't do it
this makes me want to kms
