Méthode / Partition CD / Cette méthode est composée de 3 volumes. Ce premier volume a pour but de vous enseigner les techniques de base de l'harmonica diatonique qui vous permettront de jouer la plupart des musiques sur votre instrument. Il s'adresse donc tout particulièrement aux débutants et néophytes ainsi qu'aux harmonicistes ayant déjà un petit bagage technique mais qui stagnent ou ne savent comment travailler pour progresser. Cet ouvrage n'est pas une méthode de plus pour débutants. En effet, elle fait partie d'un tout et en la travaillant, cela vous permettra d'aborder ensuite les autres volumes. Dans ce premier volume nous étudierons les techniques essentielles de l'harmonica diatonique: bien souffler et aspirer sur un seul trou, se déplacer, faire des effets de mains, altérer sur tout l'harmonica, jouer et utiliser les octaves, travailler des thèmes. Cependant, pour apprendre un instrument il faut aussi étudier les autres disciplines musicales que sont le rythme, le solfège, l'harmonie, l'entraînement d'oreille (ear-training). Si cet ouvrage est avant tout une méthode d'harmonica, nous vous donnerons également les points essentiels de ces matières qu'il faut absolument connaître. De plus, nous vous encourageons vivement à vous intéresser de plus près à chacun de ces aspects musicaux car ils sont communs à tous les instrumentistes.
