This is a very amateur effortto replicate Imagine on my harp. AM just 1 week old into it and wanted to know what can I do besides practising regularly, to improve the quality of the sound.
Also, What is the correct sequence in learning harmonica? LIke learn the chords, then the single notes, then bending etc. Could you help me with that? Am I starting to learn songs a bit too early?
PLease guide.
Welcome to the site Prateek_sarkar. The progression of lessons can be found here http://www.bluesharmonica.com/lessons_by_level, starting with Level 1 material. Here's a quick reference format http://www.bluesharmonica.com/sites/bluesharmonica.com/files/private/loa...
You'll start with the Blues Harmonica Fundamentals lesson and then go to Tongue Blocking Study 1 (you'll learn how to play single notes and other common harmonica techniques). As you work on Tongue Block Study 1 you'll also work on Solo Harmonica Study 1 (this shows you how to play chords).
Follow the lesson structure, it will teach you everything you need to know in regards to technique and music. Best wishes on your studies.
