How to play harmonica: Circular Breathing

All of my "How To" videos are collected here in this group: http://www.youtube.com/groups_videos?name=HarmonicaEnthusiasts



psychopractor:
I play didje and I would like to share how I learnt to circular breath. I bought a thickshake from McDonalds and used the method above to generate a constant stream of bubbles - the more resistance the easier it is. Once you can do that move to a glass of water and then air. Now I'm learning harp I should give it a go :)




--That is a great method.. you all should try it.. breath normally through the nose while having constant pressure on the straw created from your mouth muscles...

This is so great, I'm going from nowhere to just not-so-great-yet but very motivated harp player. Thanks man

[pazzmanmusic]

@billpuka Awesome man! ! Just stick with it... motivated is the ONLY thing that matters... Everything else, with time, will come.

[CoolPolar]

Arrgh! I've been trying this for days, but when I start breathing in, the note just gets cut off!!!!!!

[pazzmanmusic]

@CoolPolar try the milkshake exercise :)

[pumukellll]

hey pazz! at first i love your heeeello youtube :D

and second. a can do your first exercice, but when i go on the harp, im only getting a very short sound, any tips?

[pazzmanmusic]

@pumukellll keep at it and practice on making the fluid transition... it is tricky, but keep at it.. try to use ea note that makes the most sound for the least amount of air

[ImImmI]

[KuvaPefo]

How the #%$ Yes it is a hard thing to do! XD

[o0Panpoo0o]

[bilvis48]

pretty informative...but i cant help thinking im talking to chevy chase

[redgecko13]

Can this process be reversed? I want to draw in for 32 consequtive notes. Can I breathe out through my nose at the same time to get rid of all that air?
