From "Shenandoah" to "Silent Night,", "Amazing Grace" to
"Wabash Cannonball," almost every harmonica song becomes
bluesy when you play it in second position, Cross Harp.
In this new book and CD, Jon notates and plays the melodies
of almost 100 great public domain songs in the style every
one loves the best: second position blues harp. On the
73-minute "CD Song Teacher", Jon demonstrates each song,
using multiple embouchures, bends, pull-offs, pull-ons,
vibrato, hand flutters, rhythmic chugging, tongue-blocking,
octaves and tongue-slaps, 1st, 2nd, 3rd,4th, 5th and
12th Positions, to make these tunes come alive in the
language of the blues harp. This program is designed to
be a training manual for harp players and a resource of
ideas and songs to last a lifetime.
