…and this is what awaits you:

After you have learned the most important things about the instrument, posture and fingering in module 1, Florian Michlbauer shows you step by step (fingering by fingering) in the videos how to play the harmonica. First you learn how to use the bellows and play on the melody side. In module 2 you learn how to play the accompaniment on the bass side and also how to play with both hands. In the 3rd module you will already play the first songs with both hands. In the 4th module you will learn 3/4 time and simple waltz melodies. In addition to other waltz melodies, the 5th module is about musical performance. After all, what you play should sound good, right? The polka is certainly one of the most popular dance forms in the Alpine region. In module 6 you will learn what you have to pay attention to when playing the polka so that it sounds musical. In module 7 there are six new, varied pieces waiting for you. Now it's all happening in quick succession. From modules 8 – 10 you will learn new note values, 2-part fingerings and other beautiful pieces.

The individual videos and modules build on each other didactically and not only contain exercises, songs and lively pieces, but also teach you the most important theoretical basics in an easy-to-understand way. In addition, the course also contains interesting video contributions in the other modules about learning and about the harmonica. By the end of the distance learning course, you will have built up a nice repertoire with lively waltzes, country songs, polkas and marches. With this comprehensive basic knowledge, you now have the prerequisites to learn and play various playing styles from the extensive Michlbauer sheet music through self-study. Brilliant, right?
