“This harmonica program gave me new insight and an ‘I Can Do’ attitude. It has helped my breathing, and most of all it’s fun and I look forward to each part of our group” Jean McLaughlin

“It helped alleviate my depression. At the same time it helped with my breathing. I found playing the harmonica to be a lot of fun. It’s great to try something new.” Chalkley Murray

“This was a terrific class. It helped me in two ways—it gave me a unique exercise while exposing me to the world of harmonica music.” Kennell Jackson

“I strongly recommend this class. I feel it’s improved my lung capacity (though not measured). It’s fun! So different from my other activities. I’m 86 years old.” Evelyn Langenwalker

“Any time I mention this class to friends and family, I get a laugh. The second reaction is excitement about the study. It has reopened my enthusiasm for music… a new and valuable dimension to my life.” Ann Marie Fitzpatrick

“FUN – FUN – FUN” Rosemary Panec

“A most enjoyable way to ‘blow’ and improve/maintain lung power.” Adele McPartland

“[Playing the harmonica] is great for deep breathing and improving inhalation. [The study of the harmonica] keeps your brain active learning new items—reading music, etc. [This was] fun and uplifting.” Sandy MacKinnon
