PREFACE The objective of this book is to express as clearly as possible the fundamentals of music in a logical sequence as they apply to harmonica The job of explaining harmonica is not easy, but 1 am approaching the problem from the standpoint of an educator. Therefore, this book is a preparation of performing on the harmonica. Whether the music is for harmonica or other instruments a number of technicalities have to be explained. (1 have made every effort to keep technical problems to a minimum.) It seems to me that there is a tendency to exaggerate the difficulty of understanding music. Invariably some say they love music but don't understand it. These feelings are often not justified. Participation in a music instrumental group ultimately depends on the ability to read music. It is a fact that to have the ability to read music, to hear tonally and feeI rhythmically, what is seen in the musical notation, even before it is perfonned, seems necessary. It would be an error to assume that musical sensitivity will increase without serious study. Musical understanding must be consciously, systematically and carefully taught. The overall scheme of the preparation of this valuable book is being made available to the harmonica student and reflects the attitude that education and learning are not necessarily incompatible with the playing of harmonic;:a The, implications of this attitude are in themselves of enormous value, in so far as they may in time breakdown the barrier of "teaching" harmonica in our educational institutions. This book' s value is not only an implicit one but a practical one. Indeed this is its primary purpose, that is, to give the beginning harmonica student the rudimentary musical and theoretical tools that are needed to become a professional musician. Philip M. Duncan
In memory of my Grandfather, William Espy Butler.

INTRODUCTION This book deals specjfically with the chromatic harmonica. Learning the chromatic harmonica is a matter of absorption and internalization, therefore, daily practice is necessary.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this book is to clearly, correctly and completely set forth a foundation for chromatic harmonica study. It is designed to help the student to think and feeI musically.
HOW TO HOLD THE HARMONICA Hold the ha rmonica firmly in the left hand with hole number one to the left. The left index finger should lie along the upper part of the instrument and the thumb along the lower part. The right hand should be cupped around the back of the harmonica with the right hand index finger posittoned on the slide button .
. PRODUCING THE SINGLE TONE A single tone is produced by blowing air through the instrument and by drawing air through the instrument with the use of the tongue to block unwanted holes. Place the harmonica comfortably in your mouth as though to blow four holes. Now bring your tongue forward covering all holes, then move your tongu,e to the left just enough to allow air to flow from the inside right of your mouth into only one hole. DO NOT LET AIR ESCAPE THROUGH THE SIDES OF YOUR MOUTH. BLOW AND DRAW T-H-R-O-U-G-H the harmonica, not at it. without tongue 6
7 8
9 10 11 12
DDDDDD VIBRATO
You can effect the sound of your playing by adding a wavering tone, called VIBRATO. Holding the harmonica in the left hand, close the right hand over the left. Now open and close the right hand over the left and a wavering tone will begin. As the right hand moves back and forth slowly, a rich mellow vibrato is the result. The heel of both hands should stay in contact with each other while the fingers of the right hand move back and forth. The movement of the right hand should be smooth and even. The left hand can also create vibrato.
ARTICULATION You need to develop a skill that will help to control and create the necessary accent and separation of tones. By using the upper lip to physically "bite" the harmonica, you will automatically create a quick and easy note separation skill called ARTICULATION. You MUST WORK each musical piece trying to develop this necessary skill. It must be learned slowly and gradually in order to develop this skill. As this skill develops, your playing will become clear and distinct, with greater efficiency to be able to play fast and accurate. The use of air control and throat muscles to develop articulation seems to work in the beginning but will lead to sloppy and unclear playing.

BE CARE FUL not to play hole 4. It will produce the SAME tone as hole 5, but will produce a different draw note. NOTICE: Hole 5 of the chromatic is actualiy high C on the 3rd space. This book notates this one octave lower or middle C. This is done for reading purposes. This helps to eliminate ledger or added lines, as well as to allow for a greater variety of music. * Your tongue may only cover holes 3 & 4. 7
ACCIDENTAL: It is a sharp ar flat that is not normally sharp ar flat. In the Key of C there are no sharps ar flats. If any appear they are called ACCIDENTALS. This is a sharp. (#)

PHRASES When reading or listening to the written page, a person does not concentrate on each letter. We listen or read each complete thought. As with music, single notes are meaningless. But when those notes are arranged in a musical thought process, otherwise known as musical senfences called "Phrases", music develops a definite meaning. Learn to THINK and PRACTICE music phrase by phrase.

TONAL SHADING The melody of a piece of music can be constantly changed in "thickness ". This is the beauty of the harmonica. With more ar less air pressure applied ta the harmonica a distinct "thickness" ar "thinness" of sound may be obtained. This change is sometimes called the intensity of the tone. By using this effect (contrast of "thickness" and "thinness" of the tone) you can add "color" ta your sound, making it more interestingfor playing and listening. Also by changing the shape of the mouth cavity (embrochure) tonal shading can become an important and exciting part of tone development of the melody.

IMPORTANT: The harmonica is designed with the slide to sharp or raise each note one-haU step. Therefore, to create a "flat" you have to move the harmonica to a lower number or hole and sharp that note which is enharmonic to the flat. Such as B to B flat, you move to A and push the slide in and play A sharp which is enharmonic to B flat.

HOWEVER, it is best to "think flats l ' by moving the harmonica so that you are actually flating or lowering the tone rather than sharping the tone below. As you become more aware of the harmonica and the placement of tones, most of these beginning problems will be resolved through practice. 47

*NOTE: Instead of writing out every F sharp, most composers put a sharp sign at the beginning of the piece. This is called the KEY SIGNATURE. You play all the F's sharp.
MAJOR SCALES A major scale is eight tones in alphabetical order, beginning and ending on the same letter. The major scale consists of a series of whole steps and half steps. A pattern exists because the half steps are always between 3 & 4 tone and the 7 & 8 tone of the scale. AU other steps are whole steps.

In keys other than C, the shifting of an octa ve to actual pitch becames necessary for two reasons. FIRST, the reading of the music ta remove ar avaid leger lines for easier sight reading. SECOND, for ease of playing. Playing in the lawer octaves is much easier than the upper actave.

For reading purposes in the key of C this boak used hale 5 as middle C. As we pragress to ather keys, it becomes necessary

You can see that if the key of C was designed this way nothing below middle C could be played. However, the key of G, hale 3, is not the beginning of the harmanica allowing the written tone ta rest an the 2nd line of. the staff instead of the 3rd space below the staff.

Generally speaking each octave of the chromatic harmonica is the same, except for register change. That is, each octave is a complete actave and can function without regard to written notational levels. Moving from octa ve to octave, without regard to notationallevel demonstrates an understanding of variety, musicianship, experience, expression and professionalism.

IMPORTANT As you have experienced, the upper octave is difficult to execute certain melodies. At this point you may wish to return to the previous music and attempt to play it in the lower octaves. If the tune does not descend lower than middle C, hale 1 of the chromatic will become the lowest tone. 82

The 16 hole harmonica adds the lower octave so that songs written below middle C can be played on the actual pitch level. It takes less pressure and more air to the play the lower octave. The lower octave does not respond as quickly as the upper octaves. It will take practice, but a smooth, easy tone can be achieved.
