[Harp-L] When to Study What?

[Tony Eyers <tony@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Where to go after 18 months playing? Two suggestions

1) Listen to a lot of music, harmonica and otherwise. Something will 
really REALLY grab you and not let go, maybe something unexpected. Then, 
within reason, whatever techniques you need to play that music are the 
ones you learn. Two things that grabbed me early on were Hollywood Fats 
and Andres Segoiva "A Bach Recital"

2) Learn to sing, just a bit. If you can manage a couple of blues 
standards, just passably well, then you'll get more opportunities to 
play. Many of us sing, some pretty well, the rest get by. A singer makes 
a jam, the players are extra.
