Hi David! I have been practicing the second study song "Temperature" and studying the first chromatic study song as well. I'm using a 16 hole chrom harp for now: can I add some tongue slaps on the 1st hole as well? I know you don't do that because you play a 12 hole instrument but I feel like those lower chords for slaps are really nice and powerful sounding!

Thanks for your answer David!

Thanks for your answer David! Can I add some slaps that are not in your recording or in the sheet music?
