Anyone know?"  
 
My CDs "The Act of Being Free in One Act" and "The Second Act of Free
Being" contain a couple of dozen pieces -- mostly solo -- written for
harmonica.  The stylistic influences vary, and include Beethoven and
Bartok.  

Your friend can hear full-length MP3s of several of those pieces at:

"Widow's Walk" and "Winter Sun at Nobska" on that page are very much in
the European art music tradition.
