Sweet, I love the sound of the low harps. Nice tune-I heard the "elephant walk" in there.

That was really well done. Very creative and entertaining.
I can see that appealing to everyone in a crowd.
Good stuff ... Great notes coming out the back side of your harp.
Wow

Man that is lovely stuff Wheel! Very inventive with cool technique and nice effects, loved the straight to bent warble and the tongue roll phrases and the horn like phrasing.

I agree with Gmaj7, that would go down really well on a live performance.

I thought it might have been an altered tuning on 1st listen but it seems to be standard richter, 2nd position? Tried to play along on my low D but struggled, you were going places my brain is not programmed to go:)

Hooktool, harmonicanick,GMaj7, Grey Owl, thanks a lot for listening and kind words!
Unfortunatelly I don't have band now, so backing track is my best friend :)
Grey Owl, yes it's a Richter tuning in 2 position. Ussual D harp is to high for my taste so i tried it on low D :) Thanks a lot for your comment!
BTW, Grey Owl, I wrote to Michel Herblin (what a wonderful person he is!!) and now I'm listening to his CD! Thanks a lot for your advise to write him a letter!

Wheel, I'm really pleased you managed to get in touch with Michel, he really is a super nice guy. His 'Golden Melodiies' cd is great.

You always do a great job. Thanks mucho. That "purring" effect - tongue roll maybe? … How ?

Muchas Gracias, Shaganappi :) I think you mean the sound of "big" octave on 4-8 holes draw :)

Yeah - fat chord at 1:18 I think. I never do that. Gotta look this over more. Maybe even tab it out if I get some time. Plenty for me to learn here. Phrasing, chords, connectors, fluidity and of course, a lot of technique.
