Hey Folks
My Journey with 1st 2nd and 3rd position is a never ending trip, and I'm always trying to improve and learn more.
Of course, however sometimes trying something new can inspire us to continue studying and etc.
So now I'm taking "Help me" and trying to transcribe and play along with it on my C harp on 12th position just for fun and for studying purposes.
playing it on 12th is a great exercise for bending control and overblow control as well.
I'm transcribing the cut, and it demands the 1OB which is tricky but I can nail it, even tho is hard.
I'm at the first solo and I have part of it, the triplet part. But My head is spinning with the warble thing.
What can be done in 12th position instead of the warble?
I just started playing 12th yesterday and was practicing some basic licks and the blues and pentatonic scales.
I'm trying going from 3'' to 4 blow which are the same notes the Bb harp plays. but it doesn't sound good, unless it is done at high speed which is difficult due to change between the bend and blow
12th is commonly used to play major so, minor playing is demanding but why not try something different for a while?
Any suggestion or ideas are highly appreciated
