The Staccator was created by Dr. Chris Cigolea, a distinguished music educator, performer, and conductor from Toronto, Canada. It was designed to revolutionize practice for Brass and Wind Instrument players by shifting the focus to tongue muscle development and centering the airflow into the mouthpiece. This innovative tool targets the key muscles in the tongue that are essential for mastering articulation and staccato techniques.

When using the Staccator, players engage their tongue muscles by blowing into the device, which produces a metronome-like sound. This action not only helps players improve their timing and precision, but also strengthens the tongue muscles crucial for executing crisp articulation and centers the airflow into the mouthpiece. By incorporating the Staccator into your practice routine, you can specifically target and enhance these muscles, leading to a centered and articulate playing and a more controlled sound on your instrument.
