[Harp-L] Regarding hands

["Leon & Gail Albin" <spock@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi List,
    There has been interesting comments lately on the hand motions of
harmonica players, famous and otherwise.  I have a Super 64 which I like a
lot.  My question is how do you wrap your hands around it to make it
somewhat airtight and make more expressive sounds?  It is 7 inches long and
1 inch high and 1 3/4 inches wide.  I am not a small person, I am 5 foot 8
inches and have good size hands.  Any tips on this?
    I too enjoyed the American Idol harmonica playing singer contestant.  In
case someone watches, and has forgotten his name and he is merely
singing...he is the nice looking young man who is prematurely grey.  Hmm, I
wonder how he got gray, maybe learning to master his harmonica.
