SheldonA few weeks ago I got to see the great Howard Levy play in a small venue in Oakland. For those who aren't familiar, he's a living legend of harmonica and an amazing pianist as well. Holy shit the man did not disappoint!I haven't been playing my harps in some years and lately it's been on my mind to start again so my eyes popped out when I saw that Howard Levy was playing a small quirky venue near me that I had never been to.It was Piedmont Piano, a piano showroom that moonlights as an occasional performance venue. It was a fantastic place to have my first Howard Levy experience.He was selling his instruction books so naturally I had to buy all of them. I asked him to sign one of them and was impressed with how attentive he was with everyone who approached him. You could tell he loves teaching music because he kept having to stop himself from launching into an impromptu seminar. It was wonderful to witness.<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/harmonica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#harmonica</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/oakland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#oakland</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/concert" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#concert</a>

quietsnail<a href="https://nerdculture.de/@douglaswelch" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@douglaswelch</a> Listening to the ones tagged harmonica, I think a number of those are actually squeezeboxes rather than what we call harmonica today. It's possible at the time people sometimes referred to all free reed instruments as harmonicas, though I can't find anything confirming this online.I've reached out to a harmonica historian, if I get an answer I'll post it here.

Brudi BräuWelcome to silly little hobby project No. 327: Turning my new harmonica pink.

Bicycling Monterey 💚🌎🌍🌏“My Canada” is one of our many favorite songs written by Manitoba native Dan Frechette, performed with Laurel Thomsen. We dig the lyrics and music, and we also dig the song because our precious grandchildren are Canadian Americans, and their dear mama a native of Canada. This is a snippet of “My Canada” from Dan and Laurel’s May 5, 2025 performance at Good Old Days in Pacific Grove, California.

[:babaKatt:] Fanged Menace :ironFront::enbyCrossbow::sparkles2:By popular demand, here's one of the latest harmonica projects I'm working on :dragnUwU: I bought this old vintage tremolo harmonica for 50 kroners (5€). Seller said it was in "good condition" but at a glance you can see something isn't exactly right. However I've gotten more comfortable with my skills as a harpsmith, and this shouldn't be too hard to fix, right? Also 50 kroners for a harmonica is bargain :dragnGoogly: Got quite the suprise when I opened it up, I've never seen this kind of corrosion before on reed plates. :dragnEyes: Normally brass will never corrode, unless it's kept in an really bad environment, so wherever this harmonica was stored it was not happy to say the least :dragnSweats:<a href="https://twoot.site/tags/harmonica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#harmonica</a> <a href="https://twoot.site/tags/munspill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#munspill</a> <a href="https://twoot.site/tags/munspel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#munspel</a> <a href="https://twoot.site/tags/mundharmonika" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mundharmonika</a> <a href="https://twoot.site/tags/repair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#repair</a> <a href="https://twoot.site/tags/KattWorkshop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KattWorkshop</a>

Howlin' Hobbitdid an open mike last night. 1st time in ages. set went pretty well & I powered thru my minor fuckups like the pro I am. best part? guy named Martini had me sit in on harmonica for several tunes (in a couple different keys). pleased to find I hadn’t lost my harp skills. at the end of the night the host (Doc) brought Martini back up. he beckoned to me & said “A.” grabbed the wrong harp & ended up playing straight harp for the 1st time in longer ages. did OK there too.<a href="https://musicians.today/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#music</a> <a href="https://musicians.today/tags/ukulele" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ukulele</a> <a href="https://musicians.today/tags/harmonica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#harmonica</a>
