The good folk at London Harmonicas are to be joined Joe Powers, tango harmonica virtuoso, for a workshop next Monday, 28 June. By the sounds of it, this is a not-to-be-missed masterclass session for anyone who's interested in breaking out from the 12-bar bleurghs. From his bio:
"Harmonica virtuoso, Joe Powers is one of the few Harmonica players in the world to specialize in Tango Music. He was winner of the Belgian Crystal Harmonica Award in the Classical Division (2008) and received 4th place in Jazz Diatonic, at the World Harmonica Championship in Germany (2005)."
He's both chromatic and diatonic, but I'm told he'll be focusing more on diatonic.
Yeah harmonicas in all kinds of music. In every country. Maybe the key to peace is one big harmonica jam with all of the leader playing harmonica LOL ----------
