Description

Donald Black is predominantly a tremolo player, using the instrument to great effect across the range of traditional Scottish music. He learnt many of the tunes he loves from accordion music, emulating the sound on the tremolo harmonica. Donald’s musical career started quite late in life, and since then he has performed around the world, appearing at the SPAH convention and even in Moscow. With five albums to his name, Donald has also recorded two tracks with the great Charlie McCoy. His music summons the beautiful scenery of the misty glens of bonny Scotland.Select the Chapter Markers tab above to select different sections of the podcast (website version only).Links:Donald's website:https://donald-black.com/Album reviews:https://donald-black.com/albums-reviews/Tony Eyers site on Tremolo harmonica:http://tremoloharmonica.com/Profile of Donald: http://tremoloharmonica.com/donald-black.shtmlWinslow Yerxa's, author of 'Harmonica For Dummies':https://winslowyerxa.com/The Encyclopedia of Harmonica book by Peter Krampert:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Encyclopedia-Harmonica-Peter-Krampert-ebook/dp/B07TW9MRW5Di Mundharmonica by Cristoph Wagner:https://www.amazon.de/Die-Mundharmonika-Ein-musikalischer-Globetrotter/dp/3887471105YouTube:NHL Bristol in 2007:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7R3vZclR2MHarmonica UK Lockdown session from 2020:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89fnOFmU9poPiping Live in 2018:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wtXnQpyYcmcDonald Black Band in Klingenthal in 2018:https://www.facebook.com/100004723477107/videos/1118269991673773/Podcast website:https://www.harmonicahappyhour.comDonations:If you want to make a voluntary donation to help support the running costs of the podcast then please use this link (or visit the podcast website link above):https://paypal.me/harmonicahappyhour?locale.x=en_GBSpotify Playlist: Also check out the Spotify Playlist, which contains most of the songs discussed in the podcast:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5QC6RF2VTfs4iPuasJBqwT?si=M-j3IkiISeefhR7ybm9qIQPodcast sponsor:This podcast is sponsored by SEYDEL harmonicas - visit the oldest harmonica factory in the world at www.seydel1847.com  or on Facebook or Instagram at SEYDEL HARMONICAS
