Re: [Harp-L] diatonic harp concerto (was: harp in bluegrass)



From: Tom Baehr <tombaehr@xxxxxxxxxxx>
I'm unaware of any major work for diatonic in a classical setting, and am willing to be educated on that point. But there are dozens of pieces written for chromatic and orchestra and/or piano. Either instrument should work in any genre or era, using musical judgment and good taste.




Howard Levy has a Concerto for Diatonic Harmonica & Orchestra --
problem is that right now he is the only guy that could play it!

BTW--it appears that Howard will be "hanging out" (like most of our tongues & jaws) at SPAH on Fri Aug 17!
