Schott Music Mundharmonika-Liederbuch

With the harmonica songbook Perry Letsch, harmonica player, author and teacher, presents a collection of pieces for the Blues harp. This does not turn out to be easy. The Blues harp, German: Richter-Mundharmonika, has a special tone arrangement, by which many songs can be played only in the upper octave or advanced techniques are necessary. This can cause problems especially for beginners. For this reason, Letsch reviewed over 100 songs for their suitability for the instrument and hereby provides 70 English and German songs.

Since the songs are arranged in an easy to moderately difficult way, this edition is suitable for beginners as well as for advanced players who have already mastered techniques such as bending. To make the pieces a bit more challenging, some songs even include solos.

Includes playalongs for download.
