  • If it works for you, use it! There are so many different methods.

  • It's Gershwin's Summertime. I play it by ear so no tab available sorry.

  • I play by pursing my lips instead of tongue blocking, and when I was just starting sometimes my lip muscles would fatigue and shake, making the exact same effect. This kinda reminds me of that sound, what with moving the harmonica relative to the lips

  • Brilliant! So easy and can be done very subtly. I guess Ive always done it but never thought about it, Im glad you articulated whats going on because now I can use it more purposely. Thanks!

  • whats the piece played just before and where can i get the tab?

  • Nice, go NZ

  • This is awesome man

  • From Christchurch? Awesome! I'm from Tauranga and play harp. Just played at the Tauranga Jazz Fest the other week. Hopefully we meet on our musical travels :) Peace
