🎼 reminds me of "Toot's" 👍. 🏴👋🎼👍👍😁
Do you normally play a Cromatix?
wow , it 's very good !
I have a SUB 30 ... good harp ❤
Truly masterful!
Thanks! 🎶🎶🎶
Excellent video, Filip. Love the long format. More please.
Thanks for your kind words! 🎶🌞🎶
Sounds great man
Thanks! 🎶🎶🎶
Hi, what key should I choose for my first chromatic harmonica?
C 12 is a great choice!
Great stuff Filip, are you thinking 'positions' as you move through the changes here at all? Many thanks for sharing all your great harp jazz vids
I think keys. But positions when I started, it is easier in the beginning. Then you can transform that to keys later on.
So beautiful, so soulful, appreciate the beauty you present to us
Thanks for your kind words! 🎶🌞🎶
Goddamn! Instant sub
Thanks! 🎶🎶🎶
most fluid harmonica player ever seen
Thanks for your kind words! 🎶🌞🎶
🎼 Brilliant 👍
🎶🙏🎶
Where's the comparison? 😊
Available as a longer video on my channel!
Progres. Love your music.
Thanks! 🎶🎶🎶
Exelente
🎶🙏🎶
Oh Filip, where can I get the Duet CD?
Thanks for asking! It is sold out.
It would be so helpful if you could post a link to the backing tracks used in your beautiful jazz improvisations. 💙💙💙
Yeah good idea! This backing I did myself. But will think about it!
@@FilipJersMusic Thank you very much for your reply and for considering this suggestion. 💙
🙌🙌🙌
Thanks! 🎶🎶🎶
Ah , very nice 🎼👍
🎶🙏🎶
nice work :-) I would like to know what kind of harp and what key this is :-) thank you
C harp and rhythm changes in C!
Zbog mog načina sviranja u terci sa ritmikom i akordima istovremeno ,ne bi trajala ni godinu dve sigurno.Hohner 280 C je lrpo svirala samo dve godine i gotovo.Ako svirate na jedan ton kao vi , može da traje mnogo mnogo duže.
Ah good thoughts, thanks!interesting!
Nice 😎
🎶🙏🎶
Thanks for the good info. Nicely presented also!
Thanks!
It's like Jimmy Z & John Popper had a baby.. 🤪
🎶🙏🎶
You play very good ! If you could give out the tab and teaching how to play it , a lot of more people will be watching your videos , please !
🎶🙏🎶 Yes good idea. Would love to but it takes too much time produce. I am touring full time at the moment. But will think about it, thanks!
I love that song and I love the way you did it. There's truly something about that chromatic, it's beautiful.
Thanks for your kind words! 🎶🌞🎶
Thank you!! great work
Thanks for watching!
Do you know of any bass harmonica book or other resources for learning? I did a deep search and could not find anything, I just got the name of an old book that is nowhere to be found "Learning to play the Bass Harmonica, by Judy Simson-Smith(1984), Simson & Smith Publications". So, how you bass harmonica players go about it? Other bass instruments books? Any recommendation would be appreciated.
Hi! No, no ideas sorry. I played electric bass in high school, studied various jazz bass books. For technique on the bass harp I just try to emulate what I hear on recordings. The articulation is really important do remember to use your tongue for ta, ka, do sounds.
@@FilipJersMusic Hi! Thanks for replying! I'll look for a jazz bass book and pay attention to the articulation in my next practices. Are there only those 3 articulations used? Or they are an example? Somebody else told me to use Double Bass lines, I am finding them quite useful to start. I am working on Triads too. Hard instrument, it's a big challenge!!
dobrze jedziesz, ale nie pokazujesz jak kustomizujesz
More reflections in this video!
AMAZING !! ( both)
Thanks!!
Sorry but where do you show how to customize them?
i think its supposed to be more him showing off what he has done not like a tutorial. he has plenty of those on his channel if thats what youre looking for
@@meep7701 yes that’s what I am looking for . Didn’t find them. But will look further . Thank you
Yes I have on my channel if you search! This video is more investegatin and reflections over the process.
Great ✨I subscribe right now ✨✨✨ Thank you so much for your great teaching of the harmonica and for your Talent ✨
Thanks for watching!! And for your kind words.
I finally got around to setting up 3 of my harps the other day! Thanks for posting this nerdy stuff🙃
Good!!
I always find it amusing how much time we spend trying to make our new harps feel like our old ones
Haha yes that is the goal!
Customized wood comb?
Yes from JA Harmonicas!
Incredible! Dumb question, but how does one build speed like this? Did you start slow and gradually got faster while maintaining intonation? Your fluidity is remarkable.
Good question! No I did not practice this specific and built speed. I have mostly been practicing "train rhythm" patterns for speed practice. Two inhale, two exhale in holes 123.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ✨
Thanks for watching!
I find my choices vary depending upon the song and the particular chord progression being used. When I'm doing scales and exercises I tend to use 5 blow, just as a matter of discipline, especially in keys where Bb is a core note (e.g. keys of Bb and above). Coming off that Bb (3draw/slide in) and moving to 5 blow is just as easy as 4 blow, depending upon what note comes next of course. However, I usually muck around with a tune for a while and then make a decision which C (and which F) to use for that tune, changing it only when I really see an advantage in certain sections of the song. Good video, Filip. Thanks.
Good thoughts! Yes it all depends on the music and phrasing really.
Best ever!
Thanks for watching!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 absolutely unbelievable!!!
