[Harp-L] high end notes not responding



Holes 8 - 10 can be problematic in response when too much force is used -  
more so than a gapping problem.
 
Breathing the harmonica will result in more tone/volume than blowing and  
sucking. However, this is a hard discipline to adopt (or even understand) if the  
player approaches the harmonica as an instrument to blow air through.
 
Also, there is a built in human response that items that are "higher up"  
need more energy - reaching higher to pick up something off a shelf uses more  
energy than grabbing items at eye level, for instance.
 
Try to resist this natural response - the higher you go on the harmonica,  
the more you should relax your approach to achieve the best results.
