The harmonica is possibly the most underrated instrument in the world. This may be because it's small, and people think it's really easy to play. Only harmonica players know the truth about the power and expression of their small but powerful instrument!

There is no better way to learn the harmonica than face to face lessons . This ensures rapid development of technique and provides the structure that most students need in order to take control of their playing. Whilst being friendly and informal, at The Harmonica Barge we use a tried and tested programme of lessons to suit…

Things to remember

All you need is a diatonic harmonica in the key of C, that's the small 10 hole or blues harp as people call it. If you don't have a harmonica you can still do the class, I have spares!

I received a voucher as a gift and thought it would be fun to give a harmonica lesson a go.. and it was fun. Got a bit of background of the harmonica, how it's used, some starter techniques that I can take away and practice, etc .. Ed made the lesson simple and fun on his quirky boat. The hour went by quickly and we ended the lesson with a little jam session playing along with music. I would highly recommend. Thanks Ed.

In addition to Ed's private tuition, he works in a number of schools and for various music services including Ealing. He has six years of popular music education under his belt, first studying a diploma in his native midlands and then a degree in London. In his final year, he specialised in Blues/Roots music with an emphasis on music education.
