Harmonica Classes
One Day Class
The one day class is two and one half hours long. It is a solid introduction to the harmonica, geared towards beginners. The goal of this class is to introduce my harmonica method, "Opening up a world of possibilities with the 10 hole diatonic harmonica". The atmosphere of the class will be fun, positive, and supportive. The class is limited to 12 students.
The cost of this class is $65, which includes Method Book/CD and harmonica. I typically schedule this class on Saturday afternoon at 2:00 PM, once a month, at a midtown Manhattan studio (Ripley Greer Studios). Please contact me for the dates of upcoming classes.
Topics Studied:
- Holding the harmonica
- Playing single notes and chords
- Playing exercises
- Songs in many styles
- Developing a practice routine
- Jamming to your favorite music
- Rhythm
- Playing along to guitar
- Bending, blues licks, and more
A $35 deposit is required to hold a spot in class. You can send a check or money order, or pay with credit card using PayPal. The remainder is due at the class. You can also use PayPal to pay the full class amount. I do not refund the deposit, but I will let you use it for a future class if you have an emergency and have to cancel class.
If you have a group of people who are interested in a one day class, please contact me and I can schedule a group class at your home or place of employment.
Four Week Class
The four week class is typically held on four consecutive Tuesday nights. Each class is two and one half hours long. The cost of this class is $160, which includes Method Book/CD and harmonica. This class is similar to the one day class, but goes into much more depth as the three additional classes allow. Please contact me for the dates of upcoming classes.
A $70 deposit is required to hold a spot in class. You can send a check or money order, or pay with credit card using PayPal. The remainder is due at the first class. You can also use PayPal to pay the full class amount. I do not refund the deposit, but I will let you use it for a future class if you have an emergency and have to cancel class.
