What is a 24 hole harmonica called?
About the Tremolo Harmonica
In Asia there are two main tremolo types, the 24 hole, used in China, the 21 hole, used in Japan and elsewhere. ... Both reeds sound when the instrument is played, producing a wavering tremolo sound (hence the name), somewhat like an accordian.
What are the notes on a tremolo harmonica?
The Tremolo is a diatonic instrument, the diagram shows the layout for one in C. Notice that it has all the C scale notes (C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C).
Is the tremolo harmonica hard to play?
The tremolo harmonica is different. No bending is required. In fact, bending is difficult with the double reeds, and rarely done. The tremolo is therefore easier for tunes than the 10 hole, because note bending is not needed.
