[Harp-L] Starting up a harmonica orchestra



Hey guys, I may have mentioned before my thoughts about promoting harmonica in the schools... and I did just become an Artsbridge catalog artist, which means they give me stipend to go out to schools and do it.

For a couple years I've been planning to starting up an elementary school harmonica orchestra, with dreams of starting up something like Albert Hoxie's kid band in Philly back in the day. Anybody has any suggestions, I'm all ears. I think I can handle getting the lead instruments, but I also need some orchestral harmonicas. I think I can handle the chord harmonica parts with F&C Seydel Concerto duos... I've already written some arrangements for that. But if anybody has an old bass, Vinetta, or some such orchestral harp, of any condition and would like to donate such to the Martin Elementary School Harmonica Orchestra, it would be much, much, appreciated.

Thanks for reading, 
Dave
