Harmonica Instrumentals

[Iceman6300@xxxxxxx]

Listen to any recording by Charlie Leighton.

Yes, it is chromatic and not diatonic, but is still the sound of a vibrating 
reed and one of the most beautiful ever recorded.

Let this sound influence the way you approach your vibrating reeded 
instrument, whether it be diatonic or chromatic.

Also, in the melody/lyrics discussion - the mating of the two is, of course, 
wonderful, but many lyric melodies can also stand on their own as 
instrumentals. How many times have you found yourself humming or whistling 
the melodic line of a song in which you have forgotten the lyrics? This is 
the power of the music without the words.
