Description
Whether you are an expert and want to continue progressing by optimizing your playing technique, or you are a beginner and want to learn how to trigger notes in a more rewarding and sustainable way, this book is for you!
In the early 1990s, Sébastien Charlier conceptualized and implemented a particularly effective method for altering notes in all their forms (inflection, classic bend, overnote, multi-overnote). Simply listening to him play is enough to understand that this method, known as the "4 tongue positions," allows for all possible musical explorations with a diatonic harmonica like no other.
This guide offers a detailed description of all tongue positions and pressure techniques, unprecedentedly precise 3D diagrams, and 113 audio tracks to guide you through the four paths of alteration. Enjoy your discoveries and happy learning!
