[Harp-L] re: 12th position

[rainbowjimmy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Sorry to beat this into the ground.

"The key of F is relatively easy to play in the first octave on the diatonic
with the one bent note for the B flat."

Twelfth position so a C harp. Isn't the F the 2Dbb? So if that's the  
tonic note and you're bending down to it--I'd have to practice that a  
lot before I felt comfortable doing that on stage. I play the scale up  
higher because the F is right there on the 5 draw but of course you  
run out of notes pretty quickly.

When we get someone who can really sing Patsy Cline I'm usually too  
teared up to play anyway.
