Let's talk about Chromatic Harmonica. It's a type of Harmonica which allows you to play in the whole range of tonalities by using a "special button" situated on its right side. Thus, the instrument is capable of playing the 12 notes of the Western chromatic scale and can thus be contrasted with a standard Harmonica, which can play only the notes in a given musical key. Because it is a fully chromatic instrument, the Chromatic Harmonica is the instrument of choice in jazz and classical music but it can also bend notes on both blow and draw notes, giving additional tonality if needed for blues or folk music.
I started playing it 7 years ago, and I continue to do it now. I know it's no the most "famous" instrument in the world, many people prefer play guitar or piano, but personally i like it so much because it's a very "physical" instrument, it's impossible play it in the same way as another person, its sound is so customizable and personal, it's no very expensive and you can take it with you wherever you want.
I can teach you to play the diatonic one, also!
I give Harmonica lessons via Skype, and the first it's free! So, contact me if you are interested to learn how to play it!
