Re: [Harp-L] Bach and that pesky B note
I had the same problem a few days ago, playing a Bach invention.
I simply played a blow bend on hole 1 (C > B).
What I did on some harps: I play diminished chroms where I retune the enharmonic (i.e. hole 1 D# = hole 2 Eb) on the hole 1.
Example:
REGULAR C-DIMI:
Hole: 1 2
Blow: C Eb
Blow-Slide: C# E
Draw: D F
Draw-Slide: D# F#
RETUNED C-DIMI (D# -> B)
Hole: 1 2
Blow: C Eb
Blow-Slide: C# E
Draw: D F
Draw-Slide: *B* F#
Another simple way is to just play certain passages an octave higher (has to fit with other instruments, though).
best regards
