Beginning Diatonic Harmonica
Diatonic harmonica is the small harmonica used in blues, rock, folk — and even in jazz. In this intro-level class, students learn how to hold the instrument, breathe, play chords and single notes, and the rudiments of note bending. Students also learn song forms such as 12-bar blues and three-chord folk, rock, and country tunes.

Prerequisites: Students are required to bring a 10-hole diatonic harmonica in the key of C to class (email the instructor at winslow@jazzschool.org for more information). Class text: Harmonica for Dummies.
