Harmonica Instruction for Beginners! “Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’m 46 and have had a harmonica since I was 16 and never learned how to play. At one time I bought a book that taught me absolutely nothing. Now I’m having so much fun, and people are telling me I sound good!” — Bronx, NY “I’ve been trying to play for five months, and had amassed quite a selection of books and tapes etc. My interest was waning and I almost decided to give up, but having bought your book...I’ve regained and increased my desire to play the blues harp! Thank you!” — Grimsby, England “Thank you! It’s so refreshing to get instruction from someone whose foremost concern is the pro-gress of the learner, instead of showing off his (the teacher’s) knowledge and chops!” — Jackson, MI |

Cassette or CD? Although we offer some of our methods in both tape and CD format, we strongly suggest that you get the CD version (unless, of course, you don't have a CD player).
There are two reasons for this. Firstly, all of our CD methods are revised versions of a previous tape method. Secondly, with a CD it's easy to access any part of the recording, and easier to listen to one part over and over, if you want or need to. |
