I found a new spiral tuning for 10-hole harmonica with the blue notes:
Bb,bending Eb and bending Gb, for the C-key harp.
The note C is the same note blow and draw.
Holes 6-10 blow and 5-10 draw are Kniri 221 Tuning.
Holes 1-4 and 5-8 have the same notes (5-8 one octave higher than 1-4)
6 different chords Dm7, F6, F7, C7/9, Gm7 and Bb
Playing like Richter-Tuning low octave (2.Position)
Two and-a-half octaves range.

Easy to play bluesy, jazzy tunes and improvisations !!!!
