The segment on playing "wrong" notes and how to recover from unintended notes was spot on.

Here’s a great video that explains that even more: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5bLkpJ8eMh7mNE It’s more focused on composition, but it just shows how the context really matters

Thanks! I’m intermediate in harmonica, and advanced in piano, but improvising has always been my weakness in both instruments. I’m going to try this for both of them!

I can’t afford lessons yet, but until l do, I’ll be studying every video l can from Jonah’s free library. He is a great instructor for blues harmonica. I’ve watched many instructional videos, from many different pros, but Jonah delivers critical lessons explained in an easy to understand format that is great for those of us who struggle to find continual improvement. I’m not a great blues harp player, but have been playing a long time and Jonah’s lessons have really begun to help me immensely. I’m finally making some much welcomed, long awaited progress to get me to the next level. Thanks, Jonah!!

Great video. Jonah took me through this process when he taught me. It really does help. Before doing this process I felt stuck because I was either spending all my time trying to learn songs and not understanding scales or anything else, or I was spending all my time trying to learn scales and not doing songs. The metronome does help to get through the scales because the repetition helps you to remember the scales and feel more comfortable improvising. It all goes together. And yes the last point closing your eyes and playing from your heart makes a difference. Basically the whole process gives you a variety of things to do and helps you to progress

Are you using a C harmonica?

[@AlexA-eg7gz]

😲 I've subscribed about an hour ago and here you're posting a video almost right away! Yeah, improvisation is crucial for me, cause I wanna jam. I'm also a guitar player but I have totally zero experience in playing harmonica. For now, I'm still choosing which one to buy.

[@HarmonicaRevolution]

Easy. Want to go cheap? Kongsheng Mars. Have around $50? Hohner Special 20! Have more money? Hohner Crossover or Seydel 1847 Classic or Silver. Good luck!

[@AlexA-eg7gz]

@@HarmonicaRevolution thank you!

[@AlexA-eg7gz]

but I'm still unsure whether I should go with diatonic or chromatic one. It seems that chromatic might be easier to grasp, since all instruments I've played so far were primarily chromatic, except one kalimba I have.

[@HarmonicaRevolution]

@@AlexA-eg7gz well, they're pretty different experiences. I'm a great diatonic player, but I'm only somewhat OK at chromatic. The way you learn them as even pretty different. For chromatic, you are usually focusing on learning sheet music that you take from other similar instruments like flute, alongside scales and all that. Diatonic is a little bit more casual and has a very different sound profile that works better for more modern genres of music like rock and blues. Really, I would just pick whatever sound you prefer and go with that.

[@AlexA-eg7gz]

@@HarmonicaRevolution you know, you've convinced me to try diatonic. Thanks!

[@gewglesux]

Hey Jonah, What would you suggest as the first " low" harp Low C or Low F? Thanks

[@HarmonicaRevolution]

F and then move lower once you can bend properly on your lowest key. Bends are much harder the lower you go

[@gewglesux]

@@HarmonicaRevolutionJonah, Thanks for the reply.. I was thinking the same thing. Thanks!!

[@slq3263]

Jonah can you pay monthly on your course?

[@HarmonicaRevolution]

Sorry, no. It’s a one time fee, but if you’re considering it, now is the time to buy because I’m going to be raising the price in September.
