Tongue Blocking
Sat, 11/07/2015 - 13:00
Hi David, I just started trying to tongue block and I know it will take a while, but I could use some help. I can get the full 4 hole chord, but when I go for a single note no matter what I do, I can't seem to get up to the 4th hole, I keep sounding the 3 hole. Or If I get it it's always the 1-4 octave. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Grant. Use more of the top of the tongue, further back in your mouth... it's wider. Also, experiment with tilting the face of the harmonica downwards, this makes it easier to access the top of your tongue.
