Re: [Harp-L] Learn 6 positions first year



Howard Levy does this in his online harmonica school. He doesn't introduce
bending until the "Intermediate" level or overbends until "Advanced," but
his "Basic" lessons cover just about everything you can do with a harmonica
without those techniques: Irish tunes, Pop tunes, Folk tunes, "World" music
-- even some simpler Blues, Jazz and Classical pieces in 1st through 5th
and 12th positions.

Obviously, without bending you're limited to the natural notes available in
each position, but he finds an amazing amount of stuff you can play in all
those positions. Then at the other levels, he's basically filling in the
"missing" notes.
