Description

The ORCHESTRA S: Finally there is a model with ten cells in the popular solo tuning, on which all notes of the major scale can be played over a full two and a half octaves. But the ORCHESTRA S offers even more - instead of starting with the fundamental note, the ORCHESTRA S starts half an octave lower. The tones of the scale in the lower range that are missing on Richter-tuned blues harmonicas are present on the ORCHESTRA S and can be played as usual without having to "bend" them down using the bending technique. The fundamental note of the major scale has a cap marking - this is where the major scale starts (3 blows). This makes the ORCHESTRA S the ideal and compact melody instrument with which you can take your favorite songs with you anywhere. The tone arrangement is basically the same as that of chromatic harmonicas, so that the ORCHESTRA S is also very suitable for learning the chromatic playing concept, e.g. B. in early musical education or when making music in class. Blues harmonica players will also get their money's worth - the ORCHESTRA S plays wonderfully in minor (3rd playing position) and sounds very similar to a chromatic harmonica due to the solo tuning. By extending the scale below the tonic, there are great opportunities for improvisation across the entire blues scheme (drawing 1 is, as in 2nd position, the tonic of the dominant!). ... and the bonus for the blues player: all tones of the blues scale are available or can be achieved with bending - ideal for sensitively played improvisations in a minor key.
