    Giving my head a shake messes me up! I have had very little control of my neck muscles ever since I had a laminectomy/fusion. The loss of spinal flexibility and range of motion precludes me from trilling like this. I have overcome the impediment by leaving my tongue on the comb tine, and moving the harp back & forth. Where there's a will there's a way. Thanks for this Jay!

    I had a guy come up to me after my set at a festival last weekend to talk harp. One of the first things he asked was why I don't do more trills. I told him it's like a party trick you only want to pull out once or twice in a performance, or it just becomes trite. I guess the thing with this instrument is that it's all about variety. You want to have a big enough bag of tricks that your playing sounds fresh and relevant through the whole show. If you rely too much on any riff or technique, you risk sounding monotonous.

    Hi, Jason, a lot of Harmonica players are getting this wrong when it comes to a Trill and a Worble. I thought that Harmonica players are getting this wrong when we talk about a Trill I think of Stevie Wonder Lee Osker and my friend Curtis Salgado and me. This is my friend on a recording with Dewey Terry on the CD that is currently Out Of Print called Pay Back and the song is You Rock Me All Night Long. At (3:39) is when he does the Trill. Some say a Trill is going back and forth between two holes and the Correct way he does, this is how the Harmonica players I mention
    do it? I believe it was you Jason who said you could not do a Trill in one of your videos and said I would do it for three hours a day for 5. years and could not do it and moved on to something else and it is so easy to do. Your students could do it right away but you can't do it. Sometimes in a video, someone will say when they demonstrate a two-hole shake they will call that a Trill or a Worbal when it is not either of them from my experience. This is what the Trill sounds like. ua-cam.com/video/5xURsfq1G0k/v-deo.html Thank You for sharing this video. I was trying to
    find the video where you said that would be helpful. If I find it I will show you where you said that about doing a Trill. No one talks about his technic you are about to hear. I hope this helps. I have always been a fan of your technics and your intensity and the power of your breathing. Some of the technics I want you to show and demonstrate are the technics Sugar Blue does like the Tongue Flutter or Tremolo and others he does that I don't know the names of because I have heard these technics but don't know the names of them. In this audio, you can hear Sugar
    Blue do the Tongue Flutter the Tremolo and some other Cool technics. Sugar Blue Nightstage, Cambridge MA. 1986 ua-cam.com/video/f49Ha0ZKXOo/v-deo.html I would love for you to teach us these technics he does. Not many if any Harmonica players can do or teach what he does.

    Quite often I think they sound better on amplified harp, particularly when bent and released. I also notice that it sometimes works best when relaxing from hitting each hole dead on to being more "mushy" between the two holes with a more relaxed embouchure.
    Also other techniques like dipping in to the first hole or adding dynamics like building and releasing volume add something. Maybe depends upon the tune being played.
    Now I've said enough. 😂❤️

  • @michaelrubinharmonic
    @michaelrubinharmonic Рік тому +2

    Great video. I call it a shake. I think for me a big reason why the handshake is mostly played acoustic is most right handed harp players hold the harp in their left hand. The left hand is less coordinated and untrustworthy for the shake. To get the standard tone on a bullet, you generally need to hold it in the left hand. So you hold the harp in the right hand for trustworthy coordination and do it acoustically. Of course, mileage varies and there are people who can do it with a mic.
    I also have two other shake methods, maybe I'll do a video.
    A terminology quibble. In classical music a trill means rapidly alternating between two notes one whole step apart. So the only classically accepted trill on a standard diatonic that doesn't involve moving in and out of a whole step bend is 6 and 7 draw. But language changes, so call it your mammy if you wanna.

    Thank youuuu bro! ❤❤❤ The suggestion came also because i wasn`t using them i`d say at all mb because now i realize my head was not moving wide enough as i was trying to do both with hands and my head and the embouchure - on A harp for e.g. i was getting more of a double stop dirty note kinda trill. Gotta practise them more!
    Btw i think Adam Gussow is a king of a hands moving trills, with the mic and without, if you know you know😄 Never really heard trills a lot in 3rd possition, so its time to listen more Lil` Walter!
    Well now i gotta stick to this lesson cause this has my name in it! 😆Thank you, dear friend for such a feedback to your audience e.i. your loved ones! 😺

    At (3:17) James Cotton and Billy Branch do it. So it is confusing maybe to some people when you say some people call a trill a warble and a warble a trill when a trill sounds like what Stevie Wonder and Lee Osker and Curtis Salgado do it. The best way for me to describe it is like when an old dial telephone is ringing if that makes sense like in this song at (3:39) is what a trill sounds like. The song Rock Me Alnight L;ong by Dewey Terry. It is my friend on the Harmonica doing a trill who learned it by listening to Stevie Wonder. ua-cam.com/video/5xURsfq1G0k/v-deo.html
    I think people get confused by this. I was corrected by my second teacher who is doing the trill you hear and the first teacher it was called a two-hole shake going back and forth side to side. If you listen to the Eivets Rednow recording by Stevie Wonder he does a perfect trill. If you listen to the song How Can You Believe by Stevie Wonder at (2:21) is when he does the trill. ua-cam.com/video/8bhDn6i7bdE/v-deo.html No one seems to show how to do the trill Stevie Wonder is doing. I already know how to do it but I would still like to see someone teach/show us how to do it. Jason, I thought I heard you do a trill in one of your videos like Stevie Wonder does that someone filmed while you were playing but I could be wrong but I have a photographic memory.

    When I'm holding the harp by itself, I move my hands...as taught in one of Adam Gussow's early lessons. The same is true when I'm holding the harp and a harp mic.
    However, when using a stand-mounted vocal mic, I move my head...as you've demonstrated here. The same is true when I'm playing guitar with rack harp.
    As with the question of Lip Pursing versus Tongue Blocking, I think it's important for players to explore both trilling methods. The more versatile the tool kit the better. Yeah?
    At any rate, once again, you've enlightened me about something I _knew_ but somehow never thought about...trilling tongue-blocked octaves. So cool! THANKS YET AGAIN!!!

    I first heard the warble because of Terry McMillan on "Ain't Goin' Down ('til the Sun Comes Up)". He did it three times in the song, but each one was faster and crazier than the last. Terry did the one handed shake with his harp playing hand (the right hand). He could play them super fast, intense, and clean with one hand, my friend Todd Parrott claimed that it sounded like Terry was destroying the harp, lol. He could do it slow or fast whether he was playing with a mic stand or handheld. As far as I know, Terry mastered the one handed warble.
    Todd and I also use the same method (one handed), but the right hand is our cupping hand. I couldn't do it with my head because it made me dizzy and I couldn't do it with two hands because it was very clunky to control. So I use one hand. If you've ever seen Todd play, he plays away from the mic and this also allows him to use the one handed warble.

    • @jasonricci
      @jasonricci  Рік тому

      Get it and awesome ❤️ but your talking about an acoustic/PA mic. The hand technique will change the tone no matter what on a hand held/amplified mic because Naturally one hand has been removed from the cupping technique reducing bass and compression. ❤️
