Sam, What songs do you play tremolo at church. I'm looking for songs at my church to incorporate the tremolo. Russ Sam Mok <[email protected]> wrote: I am Sam Mok, origin from Hong Kong, living in Mississauga, Ontario Canada over 15 years. I play Chromatic , Tromolo and 10 holes diatonic. However, tromolo is my preference, whereby, I learned it since my junior school and now is at mid 40. I usually play tromolo chromatically in pair. I like to alter the double reeds and single reed within the music in order to make both tones more demonstarting. (eg. I can do bending at single reed , while do chords , Octive, 3rd, 5th at double reeds). This performance style is common amount Asian and Japanese artists. I mainly use Tombo and Suzuki and fews from China, with all the major keys and few minor keys. I perform hymns and gospel music at Church. I also play a lot of folks, classical and occasional Jazz. I like to learn Chord and bass harmonica which I have never explored. I really like to join a harmonica band like my school age. It is very unfortunate, I have not been able to find tremolo player in my surrounding area. If any one have the information, appreciate your advice. Please keep this communication going. I trust tremolo still have a lot of bright future. The beauty has not been explored by many harmonica players, especially in N. Americas. Hope to see the growth. ----- Original Message ----- From: Russ Gaippe To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, July 26, 2004 8:07 PM Subject: Re: [big-harmonica] posts Whoops....That should read "I have NOT been kicked off the team yet so......." Anyone do any chording with the tremolo? Russ Russ Gaippe <[email protected]> wrote: Dave - I agree. I was just thinking this the other day. Glad you got it going. Maybe if we all (re) introduce ourselves we could get some good discussion going. So here goes: My name is Russ and I live in the Cleveland, Ohio area. I play diatonic, chromatic, tremolo and chord harmonicas. Not necessarily in that order and not necessarily very well, either. :-) I mostly play in church as part of the music team and usually play diatonic but I have on one occasion been able to work in the chord harmonica and I'm looking for ways to do that more. I would also like to incorporate playing chords on the tremolo as well (that is my least played and practiced harp). I play the Huang Chordet 20 and enjoy it and I am looking for more outlets to play. I have not been playing it long so whoever plays with me may need some patience, and, as I stated above, I play in church whenever the oppportunity arises and have been kicked off the team yet so..... Would like to discuss just about anything harmonica related. Dave - you are the Dave from A Blow For Peace, correct? I still need to get your CD. Let's hear from everyone.
