Most of the beginning harmonica instruction books are incremental... that is,
They start you out with easy songs
and build in difficulty level as you go.
spend an
hour on the piece
and learn what |
|
|
Skipping the easy songs early
in your harmonica learning cycle only means you'll struggle longer with harder (better sounding) songs, and perhaps get so frustrated you quit. |
The flip side of this advice is...don't
spend forever on each easy song. These are training songs not performance pieces. Each one teaches you something you need to know, but polishing each song to performance level probably isn't necessary... Pick the songs you like and spend extra time on those. |
