I don't think the warm sound of pear wood can ever really be replaced by the synthetics.

[clansworth]

Even so, wood tends to absorb moisture and is prone

to split sooner of\r later.

Is that a Hohner 270?

[clansworth]

Hohner 64. pitched in 'C'. Being chromatic, however it

can be played in any key. In the case of "Flamingo", the key of 'F".

Thank you very much, chrismayka. Thank God for music. I can't begin to imagine what life would be without it.

Best regards,

Jim Watkins

Dear Jim, Do you have Cd's for sale, and where? Thanks. Buddy Hirsch

[chromaticdave]

Thanks for your response. I'm honoured

by your comment on "Flight of the Bunmblebee." I thought it impossible to

before learning it. I did hear a couple of

players doing this. Willi Burger and Jia-Yi

He to name 2. So I knew it was possible.

Of course not easy because of the speed.

It was a great challenge. Still gives me fits

when I play it at home.

Thanks again,

Dave

Thanks, Dave,

Your rendition of "Flight of the Bumblebee" is amazing!

I never even attempted to learn it because I felt it would be impossible on harmonica.

Best wishes,

Jim Watkins
