- You will need a 10-hole diatonic harmonica in C. If you have two harmonicas in the same (any) key that will also help
Description
In this course we are using a simple tool to make all the tricky stuff do-able.
I've been teaching this for years to students of all levels and it REALLY works.
We are going to put tape (masking/builders/painters variety) on different parts of the harmonica to produce amazing results.
For example you will learn early on what happens if you put tape over the entire blow plate (closing ALL the blow reeds off) - you will find you can produce as many if not more notes that you could with no tape on it.
I have learnt so much using this system and I'm certain you will expand your knowledge and have fun exploring this new area of the harmonica.
Who this course is for:
- This is for anyone interested in knowing more about the harmonica regardless of playing level. Expert players may have already done these experiments for themselves
