Hi Kimolo...are you still making midi melodicas? Im interested. Have instagram?

[@francesdemoretcky9973]

I enjoyed your recording very much. Not easy to successfully perform classical music on melodica--sound, response of instrument, breath control, interpretation--I think you have shown it can be done.

Good lord .. This is beyond incredible. Spxly the parts where you bend the soft and loud volume notes so brilliantly . I am blown away by both ur skill and this super fab instrument . Standing ovation

[@MelodicaWorld]

Wow, thanks for the compliments!

[@thedroningjeeper4750]

I tried breathing circularly on the melodia a bit ago, intuiting that it should be possible, but I couldn't pull it off. Not as much back pressure as the honking big didgeridoo I'm used to playing when I utilize that technique. Interesting. In any case, you played that beautifully. I love the first movement of the first cello suite, and you did it far, far better than I ever have on any instrument.

[@PinicoMeligeni]

I'm just amazed by how precise your fingers are on the keyboard, specially when reaching those big intervals. That's only possible with lots of practice. Of course this is expected from all pro instrumentalists, but it's very unusual to find a pro melodica player like you. Very impressive. Best of luck!

[@MelodicaWorld]

Thanks! I put in lots of practice :-)

[@PinicoMeligeni]

@@MelodicaWorld And beautiful rendition by the way! It inspired me to start practicing Bach's violin partita n. 3 in E major. The range fits the melodica perfectly.

This is making my asthma act up just watching this

[@TheAlienizerTeam]

oh, i really need to learn that circular breathing technique! i remember when i was 13, a music teacher was playing the sax, and he did the same technique! he told us the name, and then he just played for a while, without stoping to take a breath ahahaha i can see that this is quite useful, but personally, i like to take breaths while in silences, i dont know why, but i think it kinda makes the performance more emotional ahahah at least to my eyes, but this is, hands down a technique that is really helpful (gotta do some research also, since the prof told us that there are certain wind instruments, like the recorder, where you cant do the same thing) thanks a lot, and i need to tell you that i really admire how you know by heart the keys in the melodica hahaaha i really need to watch my fingers and the keys if i wanna play without making mistakes (or less mistakes ahahaha) Greetings from Mexico my "compadre"🥰

[@MelodicaWorld]

I agree, taking breaths can help with musicality, as you can play more like a singer. I learned to circular breath because I wanted to sound more like a concertina when playing Irish music

[@PatsyConnaughton]

​@@MelodicaWorldI play the concertina - I'm Irish and this sounds alot nicer than the concertina! Do you have a video on circular breathing?

[@MelodicaWorld]

@@PatsyConnaughton I've never made a video on circular breathing because there's already a lot out there on youtube which you can use for the melodica. It's actually very simple, but takes 10 minutes of practice every day for a long time to become natural

Hi Albeto. Do you mean the body of the instrument, or the player's body? Both influence the resonance, but more so the player's body. The more relaxed, the more the vibrations of the instrument are able to resonant within

[@aigensou8270]

Tutorial pls

[@geislera]

One question: Is there any particular advantage in playing it in the key of D, concerning fingering, compared to the key of C, which would also be a valid choice I think? I wouldn't like to put practice time into it, just to reveal that it would have been easier using the other key. In the key of C, the piece would even fit the range of a 32 key melodica. (The original key of G does not fit the range of a melodica.)

[@MelodicaWorld]

I chose the key of D because I like playing in it -I find it tends to fit the shape of the hand well, and loads of Irish tunes I play are in D. Also it’s closely related to G. But no reason at all not to play it in C!

[@louisrelf5903]

How would you do circular brewing on a melodica? Do you need a special need of mouthpiece? Because I’ve tried doing it with the long tubular mouthpieces and it’s not been working out...

[@MelodicaWorld]

You can do it with the hose, but I find it difficult, because I'm also trying to keep the hose in my mouth. So I prefer to use the little black plastic mouthpiece that comes with the melodica

@@MelodicaWorld right. So I can presume that your melodica has an alto range, as the alto female voice (F3 to F5). Thus the bass melodica is an octave lower than the alto one. Having both bass and alto melodicas we can have almost the four-part vocal range, from bass to descant blending all registers. Nice.
