RE: [Harp-L] How to play all scale tones on Diatonic Harp ?

["Bradford Trainham" <bradford.trainham@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
You're a little off on the high end.
10-d gives you that "high a".
10-b single-bend gives you the next highest b.
On the lower notes about which you have questions. (How do you get this
note?)
You bend them.
The lowest f on a c 10-hole is gotten by bending the 2-d. 
The a above that lowest f is had by doubly bending the 3-d. 
Do you have a 10-hole diatonic available on which to practice?
 Good luck,
Brad Trainham

C Harp for easy example

- What is the best way to get the 3 missing scale tones on a diatonic
harmonics?
- They are all a whole step below the note above them.
- Must you bend the note above them down an entire step to play those notes?
- That is a lot of bendin'... specially on the high A note
- Here are the notes & holes... (correct me if I got any of this
wrong)

C=1B
D=1D
E=2B
F= How to get this note?
G= 2D
G=3B
A = How to get this note?
B= 3D
C=4B
D=4D
E=5B
F=5D
G=6B
A=6D
B=7D
C=7B
D=8D
E=8B
F=9D
G=9B
A=how to play this note?
B=10D
C=10B

Thanks.
