Subject: Chromatic octave tips?

The big stretch needed for octaves on the chromatic is pretty uncomfortable.
Any technique advice for making the embroucher more comfortable?  Any
particular instrument/mouth piece easier for beginners?

Thanks-

Hi there,
yes its tricky to begin with, but with persistant practice it'll become
easy.

I've written a fleshed out section on playing Octaves on chromatic harmonica
here:
