Thank You, Adam! Love that! So glad You share this! You sound great! Your singing is awesome too - sausagemaking or not! Being vegan that would be a vegan sausage :) You have always been such a HUGE source of inspiration to me!

when you record do you take the audio directly from the microphone or do you record the output from the amplifier?

If I’ve not played for a while my face and jaw get really tense after about 5 minutes….takes a few sessions for that to stop

I always find I use much more breath when soloing, no matter what pieces they are. Is that usual?

As a newbie I do know that lip strength is a must. I play flute and trumpet but the Harmonica is a way different beast. What do you suggest? To a new comer to the "Harp"?🙄

@gussowsclassicbluesharmoni2726 7 ай бұрын

I think that harp and trumpet have some similarities, actually. (My son played trumpet for many years.)

Thanks Adam! Great Video. This last Fall the band I play in played for my niece's wedding (no blues, a lot of fun folk and fiddle tunes but light work for the harp player.) and right after I got sick for about month, where I kept working but at my minimum of 15 min. I didn't do much technique work. When I felt better and got back to it, I was shocked at how quickly and far I fell in my playing. It was rather depressing, but the flip side was I was shocked how quickly I build back up the strength and technique. It only took about four or five days to mostly get it back. Thank you for the insight into how a working musician gets ready for a gig after a lay off.

Adam, such an awesome player , it’s amazing just to watch what you do and try to follow along somehow ,that’s a lesson I want to be at , 3 days??? South Florida ?

@peteaustin5327 7 ай бұрын

It's interesting to see the approach if the harp is a primary instrument. I usually practice scales splits octives and chourds because i play the leads and just pad the rhythms. Thanks Adam I do love sausage !!

@doubleh6062 7 ай бұрын

Adam, for how long will you practice each day, leading up to the first gig? Do you have the goal of playing for close to a couple of hours or so per day, by the gig date? Or is practicing for 15, maybe 30 minutes, per day, sufficient preparation for you?

@gussowsclassicbluesharmoni2726 7 ай бұрын

Definitely NOT two hours! Although I wish I did that. But 30-60 minutes most of the days will bring me back on line. It's also extremely important to allow all the negative feelings--"I've lost my feeling for the instrument, my chops suck," etc. They will pass. It's like a relationship. It takes work to slide in close to your partner.
