Its possible I can anwser my question in futur but....
I memorize my pitch and scale degree on C harmonica but its first position. If I whant to improvise with a licks inside 12 bars, I have to memorize the scale degree for second and third position C harmonica? I supose 90 % of my play is sec position. If I grab a licks I need to write him in sec position scale degree to be able to play correctly with chords I-IV-V or just construct something interresting to listen. Do you whant I memorize all position scale degree?
Thank you

Hello Yan. Yes, the goal is to eventually memorize all of the scale degree for first, second and third positions on the C harmonica. In your music theory studies you'll focus on first position and then quickly you'll focus on 2nd Position since... as you say... 90% of your playing will be in that position.
