The harmonica is such a diverse instrument. It can go from being soft to vibrant, and can be both a lead melody or a background instrument. Since it's a pocket-sized portable instrument that can be played anywhere, it has a very personalized sound and feel. Traditional campfire songs go well with the instrument, like "Amazing Grace" which dates all the way back to 1779.

I have no idea why it wasn't....but I just answered 4 videos and it seems fine now.

I've had an amazing time at Victor Wooten's Bass and Nature Camp for the past 2 days. I got to meet so many great people/ great musicians, played a concert with Victor and Roy, taught 3 classes a day on 2 of my favorite subjects, Rhythmic Transposition/Resolution and (my pet project) The Melody of Rhythm©.
And at the end of the second day, a little surprise...Bela Fleck showed up, so we (The Flecktones) played a few tunes and talked about how we started, how we write tunes together, and much more. What a great experience! Before that I played a great weekend with Corky Siegel at The Yellow Moon Café in Cobden, IL. And now I'm back in the saddle and I'll FINALLY answer your videos really soon.

I just played The Green Mill in Chicago and The Barn at Prairie Pines in Wichita, KS with Trio Globo. It was a wonderful little tour, 4 nights of great music. Next weekend I play at Turner Hall in Galena, IL, Café Carpe in Ft. Atkinson, WI, and outdoors in Long Grove, IL with Corky Siegel. Come if you can. Corky makes me sing one tune. If I can do that, anyone can. Hope you are having a great Summer, or if you are in the Southern hemisphere, a great Winter.</p>
