And going the other way (fourths) C, F, Bb, Eb, Ab. If you walk around the circle of fifths you get C, G, D, A, E. An Eb harp (Bb crossharp) is also simmering high and not so “sweet” sounding. Thing is, an F harp is awful high pitch – any people’s ears don’t like that sound at all. But, if you’ll be playing with horn players a lot, look at an F harp – it plays F straight and C crossharp. We mostly play jazz on a chromatic and so key doesn’t matter as much. * Horn players like flat keys C, F and Bb especially. D is really close to C and so responds about the same as your C harp – the tone range is very similar. G harp (see above about folk music) plays in D crossharp. E harp plays in E straight and B crossharp – not as useful. D harp plays in D straight and A crossharp – simmering useful. * String players (such as guitars and orchestras) like A, E, and D a lot along with C and G from folk styles.

Many models only come in C and G for this reason. G harp is low pitched (as is A) and any people prefer that lower sound. Helpful rules of thumb though: * Folk and hymn music likes C and G. If you want to be able to play everything then one day you’re going to need 12 of them. Doesn’t matter really – buy what you want. Doing it this way gets you covered for all of the possible key permutations such as “what harp do I use for G# crossharp?” What to buy next. That means that if you know you want to play in G crossharp, the IV is C. 2) If you know the crossharp key you want but need to know what straightharp key to play that on, use the IV of your crossharp key. That means a C harp plays in G crossharp. I’d say not to just memorize that list (which is a little incomplete) but to memorize this: 1) Crossharp is the V of the key the harp is straight in. In that example, the first pitch is crossharp played on a straightharp of the second pitch. Cap’n Jack’s list might be a bit confusing using “E A” as a reference point. Which one should I get? I play mostly rock and blues, and what artists I try to mimic depends, but mostly blues and rock artists. I have had a c harmonica for a year, and I think im ready to get another key now. Harmonica : Hohner Super64 key of C Microphone : Shure SM57 Interface : SI’ms Infrasonic Quartet. Also, make sure you start off on a diatonic harmonica. A lot of pros use Special 20s, and they’re just overall good harps and good to learn on. Your best bet would be on a Hohner Special 20, which costs about $30 or a Lee Oskar Major which is also about the same price. A good (economical) harp can cost between 20-40 bucks. Essentially, when you get better, you can buy them in different keys, but try a C for now. Most beginners start of with one in the key of C, so make sure you view which key you buy it in. Make sure that you get a decent harmonica when you start, a crappy harmonica won’t help you develop any skills. They will show numbers (1-10 for the diatonic harmonica, which is the one most used) and arrows or negative signs to show if you blow or draw (breathe in). You don’t really use notes, most harmonica music comes in tab, similar to guitar.

That helped me out a lot when I began (I also play violin). Since you play piano, I assume that you can sort of play by ear etc. Basically… Learning harmonica is very simple, especially with a music background.

I already know the notes and stuff because I play the piano and oboe.

Part one offers helpful tips on how to start with the blues harp. Learn how to play single notes on the harmonica. *edit* Here are the notes to your harmonica: What brand/model harmonica do you have, and what key is your harmonica in (there is a little letter stamped on it somewhere detailing the key)? If you supply this information, then we can quickly tell you what the notes of your harmonica are. Notes don’t come in blow/draw form, they come in ABCDEFG form. Do you know what I found? Look up what the notes for your harmonica are. I understand thats the notes are blow and draw and that its completly different to the ABCDEFG scale but I want to be able to play th ABCDEFG scale on the harmonica.

Or if someone could give me a list of the opposing notes. (By harmonica notes I mean it says blow or draw in a certain number hole) could anyone give me a website that will do that. I just started to play the harmonica and there is a song or two that I want to play but there are no harmonica notes for them.
