The harmonica is played all over the world: in
Asia ( Juko Saîto), in South America (Hugo Diaz) and in Europe. Traditional
Irish music is a good exercise for velocity, breathing and working on major and minor
scales. Some Irish chromatic players turn the slide over in order to obtain characteristic
ornamentation (Eddie Clarke, Mick Kinsella)
In Canada, there are many wizards of the "ruine-babines",
endowed with a particularly swinging tongue blocking technique (W. Boivin, Y. Lambert). |
