RE: [Harp-L] Circle of Fifths or Circle of Fourths?

[Robert Coble <robertpcoble@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Buck,

Perhaps "standard" might be a tad too strong a concept, but it seems that way to me, 
based on all the harmonica literature I have accumulated, and the various forums online.

I'm a firm believer in doing it the way that works - period. Regardless of the orientation, the
Circle works either as Fourths or Fifths. The important thing is understanding the musical
concepts implied by the Circle, not getting religious about one particular way of "seeing" it.

Apparently there is some interest in a Circle of Fifths tool - I've had 18 requests for it so far.

Regards,
Crazy Bob

Robert-

That's the whole point. The way I approach which harp to use is rather unorthodox but it works for me. I don't use either circles exclusively. I guess I did not realize that there was a "standard".
