Requirements
- NO previous musical experience is needed - harmonica is EASY!
- A diatonic harmonica in the key of C. If you have a harmonica laying around at home, most chances are that it's exactly this kind because this is by far the exact most common type of harmonica.
- If you don't have a harmonica yet, any diatonic harmonica in the key of C in the $30-$50 price range would be excellent. Two favorite models of mine in this price range are the Easttop 008L and Hohner Blues Harp.
Description
The harmonica is a much easier instrument than how it might look like!
In this course - I will teach you how to get a beautiful sound out of the harmonica, and then - you will learn how to play your first 3 songs on it.
Using these tools - you can then look up the harmonica tabs and play your own favorite songs - and just like that, you've unlocked an awesome new skill in life.
The 3 songs I picked are not just especially beautiful, but also are great to learn as a beginner - since each one of them would make you a "rounder" player - and work on different parts in your playing:
Louis Armstrong - What a Wonderful World
Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah
Bob Dylan - Knocking on Heaven's Door
Also included are several extra lessons for your enjoyment:

Who am I?
I am a music artist and adventures man, running my teaching business to inspire more people to play music, playing venues with my band / solo, and learning from the most inspiring musicians wherever I go.
In the last 10 years, my love for music took me to live in music capitals such as New Orleans, Austin Texas, Byron Bay (Australia), Amsterdam (Netherlands) - enriching my musicianship and becoming a better mentor for my students online.
I professionally play the harmonica, piano, and guitar, for myself and for other artists, on stages and in recording studios. I have been playing for 15 years, and I didn't start very early - I was 19 when I first picked up playing music.
I believe you can ALWAYS start and become a great player who deeply enjoys playing music, no matter your age.
My social media videos gathered over 10,000,000 views, and you can find me on YouTube (Harmonica Jamz - Alon), TikTok (harmonica.jamz.alon), and on my new Instagram (alon.kuperberg).
Who this course is for:
- The course is for you if you enjoy the sound of the harmonica and you are curious about playing it yourself.
