I Quit Everything To Master The Melodica

Learn to play like a pro with the NEW Melodica Lessons Book: https://geni.us/QF0A I wanted to share how I learned to play Irish melodica, travelling to the Indian Himalayas, and combining melodica practice with meditation. I didn't take a Yamaha Pianica, Hohner Melodica or Suzuki Melodion with me, can you recognise the one from the photo? Instead of taking melodica lessons, I listened to my favourite concertina player, and copied everything he did! The three traditional Irish tunes I play at the end are: 1) The Ivory Flute (James McMahon https://thesession.org/tunes/3342) 2) The Furze in Bloom (Gerry Harrington https://thesession.org/tunes/9629) 3) Timmy Clifford's (https://thesession.org/tunes/656) MUST READ: Guide to Buying a Melodica: https://melodicaworld.com/buying-a-me...

These days I play the Yamaha Pianicas, and also like the Suzuki Melodions. The Hammond 44 is also a great instrument. Hohner are a company that made some of the first melodicas, and actually coined the term 'melodica'. There's some great vintage models, including the cute Hohner Melodica Soprano, and the larger Hohner Professional 36
