Par BARRETT DAVID. How good of a musician you become is predicated on how much practice you do and the quality of that practice. In all likelihood, you don't have access to a harmonica teacher (a rare breed), so it's up to you to identify what will help you grow as a player and how to best spend your valuable practice time. In Daily Studies for Diatonic Harmonica, author David Barrett (the world's most published author of harmonica lesson material) provides recommendations on how to set up your practice room, structure your practice time, what to work on to improve your playing, and how to prepare you for performance. The Daily Exercises portion of this book provides essentialexercises for the diatonic harmonica—movement patterns, scales, tongue block technique drills, an exercise to help you memorize the chords of the 12 Bar Blues, your harmonica's note layout, and how to choose a note to match over a given chord, at any time, in any range of the harmonica. This book and accompanying recording is an essential text for all students of the diatonic harmonica. You'll need a C Major Diatonic Harmonica for this method.

Par BARRETT DAVID. Minor Blues Harmonica includes introductory material for new players on holding the harmonica, achieving a single note, and common techniques that sound great on the instrument. Not-so-new players will enjoy learning new songs at their current skill levels. Intermediate players will benefit from learning to play in 3rd Position to broaden their options while performing. Players at a more advanced level will learn to play in minor keysâ'a challenge for harmonica players, but less difficult in 3rd Position. In this book we'll explore the killer sounds that 3rd Position has to offer, focusing on the following areas: 1) New players will learn to play single notes and movingaround the harmonica with good tone. 2) Learning to improvise in 3rd Position in an intuitive way, even for beginners. 3) Learning 'study” songs to play by yourself and at blues jams. These songs also provide valuable licks to help develop your own improvisational vocabulary. 4) An overview of music theory to help you understand what's technically going on. (This is at the end of the book, so it's not required in order to play the examples.) 5) A chapter for the more advanced players to learn how to play the lower octave of the harmonica in 3rd Position (requires good bending skills). You'll need a C Major Diatonic Harmonica for this book and recording. Recordings of all the examples are played by author David Barrett.

Par BARRETT DAVID. This book is meant to take an instrument and musical style and teach it to the people who made it so popular, the blues listening public. A comprehensive lesson and study book for the intermediate and advanced diatonic harmonica player, Classic Chicago Blues Harp presents techniques, progressive examples and accompanying twelve bar blues exercise and examples. Special attention is given to the accurate reading of blues rhythms and each notated tune is carefully marked with tablature indicating precisely where to find individual notes. Each chapter concludes with a chapter review of what was taught in that section. This book is best suited to the intermediate player rather than the beginner, and will appeal strongly to those with a genuine desire to learn the Chicago blues harmonica style. The book is excellent for self-teaching, yet is comprehensive enough to be used in a private instruction format. The included CD recording insures accuracy of interpretation and ease in learning. Most of the exercises and examples are included on the CD with split-tracked back-up music. Each song is played once with harmonica and then without. A great all-around study book for blues harmonica players at any level. / Niveau : Tous Niveaux / Blues - Solos / Recueil / Harmonica Diatonique
