Harmonica lesson: "Summertime" play along

Hello!
New KZbin video: Harmonica play along with Filip Jers!
In this video I am playing the beautiful song "Summertime". First I play it Am then in Dm. I play it on both the chromatic and diatonic harmonica in both keys. You will need a C chromatic or C diatonic to play along.
If you want to focus and practice on specific melody lines you can just pause the video and practice that specific section.
If you feel that the tempo is too fast, be sure to use KZbins great speed function button in the lower right corner of the media player. It looks like a wheel and you can lower the tempo.
Do you want to study harmonica with me?
Right now there is a 7 days FREE TRIAL on my Patreon page, warmly welcome!
I have exclusive video lessons, sheet music, tablature and mp3s.
