Trossingen Day 2

Klaus Stetter (Managing Director of Hohner Germany) started the event at the Kesselhause (old generating plant for Hohner) saying welcome to everyone and then we were off. Instructors for the day were Steve Baker, Joe Filisko, Robert Koch, Olivier Ker Ourio (Jazz chromatic instructor), Eric Noden (guitar instructor) and myself. I did a skills assessment with my class and there were some great players. Today we go into the inner workings of tongue blocking.

Your tip of the day...

Know your V Chords... even the best players in yesterday's class could have better note choices/combinations. Below are the notes that match the V Chord in 2nd Position. Use mostly these notes, or at least if you're going to hold on a note make it one of these... experiment with it...
