The ORCHESTRA S places the root note at hole 3-blow, and half of the lower octave is added to holes 1 and 2. Since many players miss some of the notes on the standard Richter-tuned diatonic harmonica in the lower register the ORCHESTRA S allows them to hit the missing notes without having to apply a bending technique. The root note of the diatonic major scale is marked on the coverplate - it starts in 3 blow.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This makes the ORCHESTRA S an ideal soloing instrument; the ten-hole design makes the Orchestra-S compact enough to take your melodies anywhere\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The note layout is basically the same as that of a chromatic harmonica, making the ORCHESTRA S a great starting harmonica for learning to play a chromatic. The compact size combined with SEYDEL's durability makes the ORCHESTRA S a good choice for musical education in schools.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The ORCHESTRA S opens new possibilities to blues harmonica players by making it easy to play minor pieces (3rd position) with a sound similar to solos played on a chromatic, thanks to the solo-tuning. They will also appreciate the extended major scale in the lower register. The root note of the dominant chord is available in the hole 1-draw, making it similar to playing in 2nd position on a standard Richter-tuned harmonica.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Seasoned blues players will find all the notes of the blues scale through natural notes and bent notes, bringing soul and color to their blues improvisation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eSolo-tuning in a ten-hole, compact harmonica.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExpanded tonal range in the lower register - Orchestra tuning.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStainless-steel reeds, coverplates, and screws combined for unparalleled durability, outlasting brass-reed models by up to five-times.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnti-corrosive, German-silver reed plates.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLip-friendly, translucent carmine red plastic comb (ABS) with recessed reed plates.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProtective, full-grain leather pouch included.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Sounds stronger - lives longer.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YTiQRt1qtxM\" height=\"299\" width=\"532\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ciframe width=\"532\" height=\"299\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jBo-VvGc_gQ\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/H3QnreSDnRI\" height=\"299\" width=\"532\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seydel","offers":[{"title":"LD","offer_id":44062383767663,"sku":"SH10330\/LD","price":87.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"LC","offer_id":44062383800431,"sku":"SH10330\/LC","price":87.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"G","offer_id":44062383833199,"sku":"SH10330\/G","price":87.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"LF","offer_id":44062383865967,"sku":"SH10330\/LF","price":87.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A","offer_id":44062383898735,"sku":"SH10330\/A","price":87.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/2992\/8815\/files\/Orchestra_S_Fr_Ru_Pack_900_RGB_a9c9e320-07dc-4d1f-9d3d-5e296c8a8295.jpg?v=1773243837","url":"https:\/\/sol-school-of-music-and-instrument-store-2.myshopify.com\/products\/seydel-orchestra-s-harmonica","provider":"Sol School of Music and Instrument Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
