Hi David! I'm a beginner player from Brazil. Having lot's o fun with The Levels-of-achievement. I'm maneging to play you favorite pattern (1.12), but at The transition end of four / repeat I went "out ou gas" (too many draws). Could tou give me some help?
Hello tabuleiro.
I'm glad that you're enjoying your studies.
After 4 bars you'll move to another chord (the IV Chord), and for that you'll play mostly blow notes, so you'll be fine.
The way to play the pattern for as long as you want is to open your nose while you play your 2+'s. Check out the breathing lesson (https://www.bluesharmonica.com/lessons/breathing_harmonica) for how to do this.
