For instance did you know there are 2 types of harmonicas? They are diatonic and chromatic. The most popular by far is the diatonic. The diatonic means you can play notes only in one key, one note, whereas with the chromatic harmonica you are able to play all notes. Chromatic harmonicas are easily discerned from the diatonic. They tend to be somewhat bulkier or larger and have a button which is pressed to open a second set of ten 'holes.'
The high quality booklet informs the beginner on harmonica styles and methods. You can play jazz, the blues, country-western, rock, you name it.
There is a genuine 'high quality' 10-hole harmonica contained in this nifty kit. The booklet explains what type it is, what it is intended for, as well as other makes of harmonicas and their uses. The clear colorful illustrations are a great aid indeed.
This unique package also includes 'over 20 well-known tunes and songs to learn and play' from Sonny Boy Williamson to Stevie Wonder. It also displays all kinds of styles used, from blues to rock to jazz to classical.
This kit would make a wonderful gift for those who have always wanted to play a musical instrument. It is not expensive, is simple to read, and explains how to play the harmonica in easy terms that a beginner can understand with little effort.
Author Oliver calls the harmonica the 'humble harp'.
