[Harp-L] wierd effects



Watching Brendan Power playing his didgereeblues tune (NHL
Festival,UK)inspired me to mess
around with some vocalising on the diatonic. Paddyrichter tuning is nice for
the low octave. Anyhow, if you play a blowchord on 5678, vocalise note 6,
and then vary the pitch strange things seem to happen. One of the reeds
changes pitch independently from the rest. Not very musical but very
strange. Is it something to do with the blow/draw pattern changing at that
point?
 On a related point, Rick Epping played some nice Jewsharp. If you find
Jewsharp guild on the net, it is interesting to read many of their
techniques are very similar to diatonic, mouthshapes, tongue effects,even
down to tuning,
comments?
