There are no more than two methods used when we play the cucurbit flute, that is, legato and staccato. Articulation is the main method to solve staccato. Articulation is divided into single spit, double spit and triple spit, and single spit can be divided into Short spit and continuous spit, short spit is generally marked with a stop or T, which is characterized by short and powerful pronunciation, and brisk tongue movements.

How to practice cucurbit single spit and double spit

In the performance of double spit, the cooperation between the fingers and the tongue is very important. The fingers are required to be in place before the tongue, and they cannot be synchronized or later than the tongue. Otherwise, the sound of the tongue will be unreal, unreal, and inaccurate. During the spit performance, if the fingers and the tongue are in sync or later than the tongue, the whole double spit will be messed up, so I suggest that you pay more attention to your fingers when practicing or playing double spit.

It is very important to cooperate with the lips when spitting slowly, otherwise, the sound will be continuous, which will seriously affect the playing effect. Soft spit performance requires maintaining the time value of the original note, so that the sound is interrupted and the intention is delayed, and the action of the tongue is reached, and too much force cannot be used. Double vomit is based on the single vomit plus a word "bitter", that is, "spitting bitter", using the continuous action of the tip of the tongue and the base of the tongue to quickly disconnect the sound, and double vomit is generally marked with "TK". Double vomit is a technique used to complete continuous and rapid splits. The training of double vomit is difficult and requires a period of practice to achieve it. At first, you can practice the tongue alone, and connect the pronunciation of T and K to practice.

When practicing on the instrument, practice slowly first, and the tongue and fingers are well coordinated. The main problem for beginners is that the vomit is light and heavy. When the sound is bitter, it will soften, and the pronunciation of bitter is ambiguous. When practicing, you should strengthen the practice of bitter.
