Re: [Harp-L] effects on tremolo harmonica



The Columbus Ohio Buckeye Harmonica Festival in 2004
featured a Chinese harmonica player by the name of Jia-Yi He,
who is an amazing tremelo player (as well as chromatic and probably
all types of harmonicas).

I was amazed at seeing and hearing him isolating notes on not just
one tremolo harmonica but a stack of them, probably at least 4 held
between his fingers (I'm not sure of the exact number).  Simply amazing!

I found this video on myspace, and I'm pretty sure he is using a
tremolo harmonica... maybe two, its hard to see.  There are some YouTube
videos where he is playing various classical pieces on chromatic, but I
could not find any tremelo pieces there.
