Just Play - learn harmonica, listen and improvise better now

Here's brilliant way to get better at the harmonica. You don't even have to think. You can do it with your eyes closed.

Listen to me and copy. Or listen to me and do the opposite. Or ignore me - just play in the gaps.

Just play. Quick fire stuff here.

This is just one way of improvising - there are many ways, and most involve a lifetime study. Which is the right way to do it unless you are too busy, in which case this method is a different way in.

So take a look and see if it will help you.

If you have a tune or subject that you would like me to teach please message me.

Ben Hewlett is a very experienced music teacher who is able to be very patient and methodical. Each lecture will introduce you to the next group of notes – usually just 4 new notes and that's it.

This method is very easy for you to pick up the tunes as they are repeated over and over again until you have got it. You can even re-run the video if you find it useful.

Take one course and learn your favourite tune. The try another. Remember you can always get your money back if you wish but otherwise you have lifetime access to the course.

Imagine how amazing it will feel when you whip out your harmonica and play this tune – your friends and family will carry you shoulder high in triumph. Hopefully they don't carry you out of town and dump you in the river, but hey, swimming's good as well.

The health benefits of playing the harmonica are well documented – google it. Your lungs get exercised, your lung capacity increases, aerobic movement is good for you, playing music makes you smarter they say.

You will have fun on your own and with your friends, and more oxygen to the brain will make you think you are having a good time so it's all good.
