Hi Everybody,
I’m glad that legendary Polish harmonica festival was revived after a 6-year break. I participated a couple of times in jams, was a concert attendee, and participated in contests (2×3rd place). Was so nice. Maybe somebody is interested…
Congrats on your contest placements!! Looks amazing!
There were a lot of great gigs, jam sessions, etc. …and here i am:
Nice! What key/position are you playing in?
For Blues Bossa I like using a C Natural Minor harmonica (labeled and played in second position.) The section of the tune, where it modulates to E flat is always challenging! I could hear you were fumbling a bit over that section as well. 
Thank you for your feedback. I’ve decided to stick with Richter for many years. I’m playing on Bb - 3rd position. About notes (I will say about notes like in a C harp) challenges/fails:
Eb: overblow. One for the whole theme. Not always hits clearly. Here I’ve got three trials. Two in the intro theme (because I’ve played the theme at the intro twice). All two trials failed. The first overbend plays together with C; the second is similar. Only at the end have I played Overblow well.
Bb, A: draw bending on the 3rd channel. I thought that I could do that almost well. But in the first occurrence in the theme (at the start), I hit Bb much higher. Something about B. That hurts.
Don’t know why that happens. Maybe from stage fright. For Bb and A I got some cheating trick: vibrate. Vibrato can hide bending inaccuracy.
B: In that song (theme and improvisation) this note is completely forbidden. In improvisation I hit it a couple of times. Let’s say it was supposed to be like that. I heard it again, and still I think that maybe it can be nice or not. This is Jazz. Maybe I have the right to play that note and other wrong notes. Sometimes I’m playing B near to Bb in natural minor, and it sounds good. Here: I have no opinion. But not very happy about that.
When I posted it on Facebook, I was proud of myself. Wow - Janek, you’re playing real jazz with real jazzmen on the stage. But the next day I regretted it, having listened to it without self-praise. Oh well – let it stay. Friends are proud of me anyway, and maybe it will be a cautionary example for harmonica players to watch out for. …and maybe in a few years I’ll be able to check my progress when I learn better bending.
Thank you very much for posting the video, Janek @JanDomanski !! I can tell that you have put in much work to learn this difficult song played on a Richter harp – bravo !!!
I hope that maybe I can attend a Harmonica Bridge festival, if they have one next year. I have some health issues that might make it difficult for me to get there, but I also have some periods of time where these issues are not so bad. Hopefully there will be another fest in 2027 !!
Super jamm @JanDomanski keep going on!
Great job and thanks for sharing
