Melody line

This tune is so full of sharps and flats that, if played on a diatonic harmonica without bends, it would likely be unrecognizable. A considerable amount of skill would be required to either, add the bends or to play it on a chromatic harmonica.

If this is the type of music you want to play, I suggest that you should consider buying a 12 hole chromatic harmonica rather than learning to play chromatic scales on a diatonic harmonica.

However, it would be worthwhile practice to memorize the melody by singing along with the videos and then attempt to find the notes on whatever harmonica you have. Doing this will greatly improve you ability to play by ear and to not get confused with musical theory. 

Kind regards, Ian.

Ok. This will play on a standard diatonic with a couple substitutions. I think the horn player indicated more accidentals because horn players are often transcribing on the fly because of the way their instruments are tuned or perhaps he wasn't using a key signature. Here is the piano music from my previous post converted to diatonic tab:

5 -6 -7 7 -7 -6 5 5 -6 -7 7 8 9 -9 -7

-7 7 -8 X -8 8 -8 8 -9 8 -8 7 -7 -7 -6 7

5 -6 -7 7 -7 -6 5 5 -6 -7 7 8 9 -9 -7

-7 7 -8 X -8 8 -8 8 -9 8 -8 7 -7 -7 7 6

6 -8 7 -7 -6 (5)Y 8 -9 8 -9 8 -9 8 -9 8 -9 8 -9

5 -6 -7 5 -6 -8 5 -6 -7 5 -6 -7 5 -6 -8 repeat this line 3X then end on -6


X = an accidental. Play 7 or -8 or leave a space. 7 will clash if you are playing with another instrument. If you don't play the note be sure to leave a space for the correct timing.

Y = This note, 5, is a substitution for an accidental that would be an overblow on a standard harp.

Chromatic would play this easily. Nice tune. I like it.
