Description

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 bending them down using the bending technique. to have to. 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 in class music making.

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 emotionally played improvisations in a minor key.

Also take a look at the detailed tutorial with lots of sound examples!

Brand

With more than 170 years of experience in manufacturing harmonicas, C.A. SEYDEL Söhne is the oldest harmonica manufacturer in the world still producing today. A multitude of well-known artists, but also countless hobby and amateur musicians have found their favourite instruments in our harmonicas. In 1847 Christian August Seydel founded the company of the same name, which is still located in the town of Klingenthal, known for 350 years for the construction of musical instruments. Under the leadership of the descendants of the company founder, C.A. SEYDEL Söhne developed at the end of the 19th century into the most important harmonica manufacturer in the city that dominated the world market at that time. In the 20th century, a changeful history followed, which included nationalisation in the former GDR and the subsequent reprivatisation after the reunification of Germany. Since 2004, C.A. SEYDEL Söhne has met the challenges of the 21st century with a completely revised product range. The quality of the instruments has been raised to a new level through years of in-house development work and the participation of professional musicians. The use of stainless steel reeds in the top instruments creates another unique selling point on the world market. Due to the improved tone response, assertiveness and durability of the stainless steel reeds, C.A. SEYDEL Söhne was the first harmonica manufacturer to break new ground and change the image of the harmonica from a disposable article to a full-fledged musical instrument. The production is still mainly handmade and exclusively at the Klingenthal site.
