Sure
it's about technique, but playing the blues harp is just
as much -- maybe more -- about feeling. Mark will teach you to
play tastefully and with feeling, so that even before
you've reached the point where you can blow people away
with your technique, you'll be able to play something
that will sound good and allow you to confidently jam with others even if they're
more advanced than you are.
Specializing in beginners and intermediate players who
want to play the blues, Mark is great both with kids and
with adults who might be a little shy about stepping out
into the musical world. For total beginners, we begin
with just the acoustic harmonica itself, learning how to
bend notes, how to breathe, hand techniques and other
essentials. But for those who can play a little harp --
or once you reach that point -- he can also teach you all
you need to know about amplified harp equipment and
technique.
Mark Zaretsky, the Chicago-born-and-raised lead singer
and harmonica player for The Cobalt Rhythm Kings, based
in New Haven, CT., has been playing the harmonica for
more than 28 years in Chicago, California, Detroit and
on the East Coast. He has led the Kings, one of
Connecticut's leading blues bands, for the last 10
years. Mark specializes in personalized learning,
tailoring the lessons -- at your place or his -- to what
you most want to learn while at the same time teaching
you all the important things you might not know you
need!
You will learn how to play and have tons of fun doing
it!
