Daaaaaanke, das ist die allerbeste Erklärung die je auf RUclips gesehen habe. Du bist wundervoll. Mit so viel Leidenschaft und super verständlichen Erklärungen. Und wie schön das der deutsche Text noch mit eingeblendet ist. Jetzt kann ich gar nicht mehr aufhören zu üben. So viel Inspiration habe ich durch dein Video bekommen.
The clarity of this description of the various articulations is exceptional. The demonstrations show what one should be aiming for at a technical level which I found very useful. Thank you.
This is wonderful, thank you so much. I’ve just discovered your channel, and have just started recorder lessons. I need to practice articulation very much! Your instruction and playing are so clear.
Donna Hughes-Barton Thank you, I’m very pleased to read that!! Together with the video on breath control & use of air and the one on posture, my aim is to give a wide technical base that’s clear and firm. I’m glad you’re taking lessons, to work with a good professional teacher is the best way to learn to play a musical instrument! Thank you! 🤗🌺
Lobke, very helpful video. Do you ever use "breath articulation" with no tongue? I read that some professional flute players use this, and I find it useful for low notes, to avoid cracking notes.
Clarionetist Thank you very much! With Du we get just that effect: it can be used as articulation even for staccato without cracking the note. “Breath articulation” usually affects the tone itself, but it’s used sometimes in modern music, and it can even be used as an exercise for any note (also the high notes), if the student is at the level of having already excellent breath support, but I would not use it as a technique for historical pieces. Please use the Du for low notes, you’ll see that it’s the ideal articulation for it, and it allows you to articulate fast notes down there! 🌺
Hello and thank you so much about this interesting video, i have a question if possible, isn’t the difference btw T and D that the T is only shorter (more like staccato) and the D longer (more like portatato) the way you did it? Or it is about the position of the tongue and its strength? Thanks a lot!
Farid Rahmeh Thank you!! For staccato we have Tut and Dud, so the tongue shuts off the air. Notes with T can be as broad as notes with D, just that the T does shut off the air with the tongue, whereas D doesn’t interrupt the air as much. Technically, for D, there is a smaller surface of the tongue touching T, and with less force; but think of very subtle differences since the tongue is an expert in micro movements! I hope that helps! 😊
Do you ever use glottal articulation in recorder as is common on Persian ney? On recorder my tongue sometimes gets tired after long passages of fast notes so I sometimes give it a rest by articulating "uh uh " with a glottal attack (i.e., using vocal folds) as in singing. The technique is explained here: ruclips.net/video/g6iSfyuwuMA/видео.html (Hope it's ok to post a link in a comment.)
Involving the throat should be avoided at all costs. If your tongue gets tired, it can be because you’re using single tonguing for fast and long groups of notes, and/or because you’re using parts of the tongue that should be relaxed in the mouth. A good check up can be to look in the mirror while you’re playing: if you see movement in your throat or chin, the base of the tongue is working when it shouldn’t. Even with the double articulation teke/dege it shouldn’t be moving - the trick is to get the tongue as light as possible and move the ke/ge as much forward as much. The air should be the motor of the tongue, “carrying” the tongue.
@@LobkeSprenkeling I see, I'm still learning the double tonguing so I probably have tongue tension, I'll go practice in front of the mirror thanks for the suggestion! For did'l do you also practice reversed as gede gede, so 'l did 'l did not sure how to write it? BTW with glottal articulation on the ney the throat is not involved and it stays open and relaxed. It's just the vocal folds that do the articulation.
@@persianney For did’l there isn’t really a reverse articulation. In my experience, using the vocal folds is still creating movement in the throat that doesn’t help. In fact, when you use them, you feel it in your throat. I’ve had some students with fundamental problems in the tongue and throat area and we had to really get into it in order to just have an open and relaxed airway.
