Hi. I'm David Harp. I used to think I was tone-deaf. Couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. Now I love to play blues and rock harmonica, and have taught more than a million other folk (many of whom thought THEY were "unmusical") to Blow Their Blues Away.
Whether you're a total beginner or a very experienced player, I believe that I have instruction methods that will get YOU where YOU want to go, whether that's playing in front of a campfire by yourself, or in front of a big audience at a packed blues club.
I especially like to help people who have tried before without success, just as I tried so many times and methods before I eventually taught myself to play, and then learned how to teach others in the fastest, easiest, way ever!

Private Lessons with David, by Phone (and fax, mail, or email)!
For more than a decade, I've been working with serious students of all levels by phone. Some are beginners who want to get where they want to go, quickly. Others are experienced players, even professional harpists.
Here's how it works. We schedule a phone session, and I send you in advance (by fax, email, or if necessary snail mail) any written material or notation that you will need for that session. I have my own personal transcriptions of thousands of licks and solos and songs, and use them at no extra charge with my private phone students.
This is for serious students of any level. Since my time is limited (due to my harmonica work, my psychology work, my corporate presentation work, my unpaid charitable work, and my familial pursuits) these phone sessions are not inexpensive, although I do charge on a sliding scale (starting at US$50 per hour). The more money you have, unfortunately, you more I ask you to pay me.
So if you want the fastest and most personalized path to your musical* goals, this is a great way to go. If you don't have the money to do it, the books and CDs will get you there too! And I do plan to eventually make some of my most popular one-on-one lessons available at reasonable cost online...
Interested? Send an email with "phone lessons" to harpstuf@sover.net!

* Please note that some of my "phone students" ask me for advice on a VERY wide variety of subjects, from mindfulness to business issues. For more information on WHY anyone would ask a harmonica teacher about such things, please visit www.davidharp.com.
