Tomlin’s Harmonica Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

There is a lot of arguing online about lip pursing vs tongue blocking on harmonica. As a beginner harmonica player I think it is really important that you understand the difference between the two and why you might want to learn both. In this episode I will explain the difference between the two, the advantages of both and how to pick which one to learn first!

In the third episode of the series for Beginner Harmonica players, I’ll be answering the question “are you too old to learn harmonica?”. I’ll also be sharing some tips from some of my older students.

I’m very excited about today’s guest. He is an OPUS Klassik award winning harmonica player and he has been described as a wunderkind since he first started playing. Equally at home in jazz and classical environments he is the fantastic Konstantin Reinfeld.
