The triple-tonguing is a figure made by whistling three short, sharp sounds on one note. In reality it is a staccato triplet. The term is applied to a combination tongue stroke used by flute and cornet players. As applied to whistling, it is a misnomer, as the tongue lies absolutely still in the lower part of the mouth near the lower teeth. Keep the lips (particularly the lower one) firmly tensed. The tones are produced entirely by the breath.

For practice, whistle this exercise down and up the scale in the different keys. Also practice successions on different pitches.
