The rhythm is five sixteenth notes in a row, where the first is a pick-up, followed by three eighth notes. It is an orchestral trombone part. It must sound percussive. It's rather fast. Will this be double-tongued? A combination of triple and double?

What's the accent/emphasis pattern on those notes? For example, are the 2nd and 4th 16th notes on the beat? I suspect the accenting pattern will affect how you tongue those notes. – Dekkadeci Oct 06 '18 at 07:18

All depends on the speed.
If you can, I would single tongue as this generally produces a more "percussive" sound.
However, if the speed is too quick for that, try and double tongue.
