RE: [Harp-L] SPAH50 and Michel Herblin ...

Michel would be happy to read it Mike. Thank you for him...and I also hope that this masterclass helped you and other people to find even more motivation and wide views on things to do with an harmonica (an other approach) 

In fact I made a mistake by writting that this year Michel Herblin was invited by SPAH, so I need to correct here. 
This is Robert Koch (Bob for most of the people there) persuaded Michel Herblin to come to SPAH and which allowed him to make trip, including expenses... I thought of origin that the presence of Michel Herblin was on the initiative of SPAH... But who knows a day can be, for this wonderful International meeting ;)
