Hello mt350z. I'm glad you

Hello mt350z. I'm glad you like it, it's one of my favorites. The secret... exhale a little bit of air through your nose each time you play your 2 blows. I have a video lesson on this technique here https://www.bluesharmonica.com/faq, titled "I run out of breath so easily!"
