Ultimate Beginners Xpress: Harmonica - An Introduction to the Basics and the Blues

"Ultimate Beginner XPress: An Introduction to Musical Styles - Harmonica provides first-time students of the harmonica and blues harp with the opportunity to get the fundamental techniques of the instrument down pat. Harmonica maestro David Hart opens on ground zero, with the basics - breathing patterns, notes, rhythms and rudimentary melodic performance - before moving into such advanced areas as chords, arpeggios, bugle calls, vibrato, double stops, shakes, train sounds, twelve-bar blues and cross-harp style. All of these individual techniques will help the novice player lay the groundwork for mastering the blues at a more advanced stage."
