Supplementary Songbook: Part Two
- You are now ready to begin to play the songs in Part Two of the Progressive Harmonica Supplementary Songbook.
Many octave substitutions can be made in this song. But without using any of them, the last line would require bending a note to supply the missing A note in the low Major Scale.
Two possible variations on the last line are notated. Either will work quite well, and delay the need for bending technique. The first ending jumps from the 6e to the 3i to stay mostly in the middle Major Scale, while the second ending ends the song in the high Major Scale. Both versions are demonstrated on the recording.
Use of the fluttering hand vibrato is practically a requirement on this song. Begin by applying it to the long note at the end of each line, then try to use it on any note held for two beats or more.
The first version of this lovely song uses many high Major Scale notes. The second version manages to stay mostly in the middle Major Scale by substituting the A note provided by 6i for the missing lower A. It sounds somewhat "jumpy", but is less shrill than the first one. You may wish to experiment with using one hand wah per beat, on all or some of the notes.
The Repeat Sign
The repeat sign 
tells the reader to repeat the entire piece preceding it. When used at the end a song, repeat the entire song. When used at the end of a line that is not at the end of a song, repeat only the line preceding the repeat sign. This useful symbol will be used from now on.
