their ski l l s and develop fur ther.

We wouldn’ t be where we are now, as world market leader for harmonicas

and accordions , i f i t wasn’ t for our pass ion and our shared commitment to

our craf t and the traditions that i t has inspired. This i s a def ining element of

W H I C H H A R M O N I C A T O C H O O S E ?

I t ’s impor tant to choose the r ight harmonica for what you want to play.

I f i t doesn’ t feel r ight , i t ’s no fun. And if i t ’s no fun, what ’s the point?

At HOHNER.DE , we therefore provide you with a detailed produc t f inder,

helping you to choose the r ight ins trument for you!

But if you can’ t get online r ight away, here’s a brief over view showing

the most impor tant charac teri s t ic s of each t ype of harmonica.

D I AT O N I C H A R M O N I C AThis i s the most common k ind of harmonica, usua l l y a smal l

ins t rument wi th ten ho les , conta in ing 20 notes , a l so known

as the b lues harp. Diatonic harmonicas are tuned to a s ingle

major sca le and are ava i lab le in d i f ferent keys . The ir construc-

t ion enables p lay ing techniques known as bending and over-

bending, which expand the range of avai lab le notes and create

the legendar y and unique sound.

Preferred genres: folk , b lues , pop, country, rock

C H R O M AT I C H A R M O N I C AChromat ic harmonicas are a lso tuned to a major sca le, but the

s l ide mechanism enab les a l l mis s ing notes of the chromat ic

sca le to be p layed at the touch of a but ton, without the need

for spec ia l p lay ing techniques .

Preferred genres: c lass ical music , jazz , pop

T R E M O L O H A R M O N I C ATremolo harmonicas are tuned to a s ing le major s ca le. Two

reeds per note of the same p i tch, but tuned s l ight l y apar t ,

c reate a warm, gent ly pulsat ing t remolo ef fec t . They do not

pe rmi t note bend ing bu t a re g rea t fo r s imp le cho rds and

melodies .

Preferred genres: folk songs , evergreens ,

Celt ic folk music

O C TA V E H A R M O N I C AOctave harmonicas get the i r vo luminous , fu l l - bodied sound

through two reeds per tone tuned exac t l y one oc tave apar t .

They do not permit note bending but are great for r ich chords

and s imple melodies .

Preferred genres: t radit ional Alpine folk songs ,

evergreens , Cajun

Music i s a universal language, transcending rules and regulations , age,

gender, and national boundaries . Musicians manage to ar ticulate our

emotions and feelings , not even necessari ly with words but with notes

and sounds . Some ar ti s t s resonate with more people than others , but

a l l of them s imultaneous ly manage to inf luence our percept ion of

music , the world , and ultimately, ourselves .

At HOHNER , we l ive and breathe music . Which i s why we decided to

honor those ar t i s t s who capture our emotions in song, us ing a har-

monica. The Signature Series was born, with one of the f ir s t instruments

honoring The Beatles . So far, we have released s ignature ins truments

with and for ar ti s t s l ike Larr y Adler, Toots Thielemans , John Lennon,

Bob Dylan, Steven Tyler and Ozzy Osbourne. And there are more to follow!

D I AT O N I C H A R M O N I C A S

Back in the 1820 s , Bohemian music ian Joseph Richter could s carcely

have imagined the impac t that his invention of a new, prac tical way

to tune harmonicas would have on the future of music . We’re cer tain -

ly thankful he came up with the idea. Although there are other poss i -

b le ways of tuning a diatonic harmonica , hi s s ys tem has become the

benchmark and s ti l l def ines the sound today.

Original ly conceived to al low for the combination of s imple chords

with s ingle note folk melodies , i t al so produces those uniquely beauti -

ful sounds with which the harmonica has been associated ever s ince.

The plaintive s l ide from one pitch to the nex t , the eerie wail of bent

notes that so per fec t ly capture s emotions that can’ t be expres sed

in words – without the diatonic harmonica , folk , b lues , and countr y

music wouldn’ t be the same.

Diatonic harmonicas don’ t jus t of fer a great way to feel the blues or

p lay lonesome countr y songs . These ver sati le ins truments have al so

found their place in rock , pop, soul , and jazz and their unique sound

has been success fully integrated into many contemporar y s t yles such

as hip -hop, beatboxing, or even elec tronic dance music such as techno

and house.

A s a bonus , al l diatonic harmonicas include a code for 30 days ’ f ree

tuition on David Barret t ’s bluesharmonica .com

M A R I N E B A N D S E R I E SWhen the Marine Band was f ir s t introduced to the American market in 1896 , no one could

have foreseen the la s t ing impac t thi s in s trument would have on the future of popular

was the s tar t ing point of our Marine Band Ser ie s , which has gone on to p lay a key role

in unleashing the raw emotion of the blues , the f ree spir i t of countr y, or the energy of

rock ’n’ roll . From the class ic 1896 to the modern Crossover, the Marine Band Series of fer s

A 100 year s down the road, the b lues i s

Music is the s trongest way of ar ticulating emotion. A combination of

craf ts , it paints pic tures with sound and lends melody to words . I t was

the desire to expand the musical range of the diatonic that led HOHNER

to develop the chromatic harmonica over 100 years ago, thus revolu-

tionizing the instrument.

Until then, harmonicas were tuned to a single scale, l ike the white keys

on a piano. But HOHNER had the vision of playing music in all keys on

just one harmonica, by incorporating two sets of diatonic reeds tuned

a semitone apar t into one ins trument and switching bet ween them

at will . Suddenly all the missing notes were available at the touch of a

button! This opened up a whole new range of musical possibilities , which

took the s imple harmonica from the campfire to the concer t s tage at

a s troke.

Today, it is a favorite not just for classical music , but also for jazz, pop,

and blues .

M I N I AT U R E S E R I E SDid you know that the f ir s t ins trument ever played in space was a HOHNER Lit t le Lady? Or

that the Puck is the smallest ten-hole Richter harmonica? In our Miniature Series , we combine

his tor y, curiosit ies and miniatures , al l of which make a per fec t gif t for harmonica fans . And

the best par t i s that all ins truments from the Miniature Series are ac tually that: playable

instruments! But to start your musical career, you might want to consider buying a bigger one.

I t ’s rude to d iscuss a lady ’s age, so we

won’t . But we can te l l you that the L i t t le

Lady is not jus t the smal les t p layable har-

monica in the wor ld, but a l so the f i r s t

ins t rument to be p layed in space. Walter

Schirra used her to play J ingle Bel ls during

his mission as commander of the Gemini 6

spacec ra f t , ensu r ing he r p la ce in the

h i s tor y books .

The reed plates and cover plates are gold-

p lated, and the L i t t le Lady is at tached to

a 14 karat go ld -p lated chain.
