[Harp-L] Harmonica Workshop

[Jason Rosenblatt <jason@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Fellow Harmonicists,

It's time once again for me to plug my KlezKanada harmonica workshop.  
Over the past six years I've been giving a harmonica workshop at  
KlezKanada, a week-long intensive program of Eastern-European Jewish  
music and Yiddish culture. It's a great time, tonnes of jamming,  
concerts, lectures, ensembles with approximately 450 participants.  
The program happens at the end of August, but spots fill up quickly  
so it's best to contact the directors soon.

My class is designed for intermediate/advanced diatonic harmonica  
players who are interested in exploring "positions" other than  
crossharp. We cover basic klezmer/middle-eastern modes in several  
different keys on one diatonic and apply knowledge of these modes to  
learning basic klezmer melodies. For the more advanced players I get  
into playing chromatically on the diatonic overblowing/overdrawing  
etc. - Getting into knowing the notes on the harmonica as opposed to  
playing in "positions."

Best wishes,
