E170 INTRODUCTION TO BLUES HARMONICA* Fee: $60

Mondays, 10/4 - 11/8 (Six Sessions) 7:00 - 8:00 PM HS Room: 123

This class will introduce Blues “harp” to those wanting an introduction. It will also

be suitable for players who have some experience with the harp and we will work

to expand vocabularies and skills that have already been developed. We will focus

on basic fundamentals including single notes, the use of hands to shape sounds,

breathing techniques and more. We will also learn some simple, well known tunes.

One of our primary goals will be to have fun while learning not only about the

instrument, but the classic American music form called “the Blues”. Blues harmonicas

are approximately $35 and the course will include sound files and song tabs.

INSTRUCTOR: Carlos Colina, experienced instructor and professional performer.
