I have been living with a serious error in my thinking for my entire life. Until just yesterday, I thought the harmonica was merely an inconsequential instrument, used simply to spice up a song now and then. I could not have been more wrong.
Yesterday, for the first time, I
heard Indiara Sfair playing a harmonica.
Indiara Sfair is a Brazilian
harmonica virtuoso known for her soulful playing, blending blues, jazz, and
Brazilian influences. She began playing the harmonica at a young age and gained
international attention through her online performances. Her expressive
phrasing and technical skill on the instrument are transformative. She gives
the harmonica the range of a piano, the depth of a saxophone, and bends notes
like a blues guitarist. After listening to the first of her songs, I quickly
found a half dozen more.
Take the time to watch the two-minute
video I’m sharing today. Maybe a harmonica will provide you, as it did for me,
with everything you ever wanted in a song.
