๐ซ Melodica - Quick Introduction ๐ซ The melodica is a unique keyboard instrument that combines the simplicity of a piano with the breath-driven mechanism of a harmonica or recorder. It consists of:
- A piano-like keyboard layout.
- A hose and mouthpiece for air control.
- A shorter mouthpiece without a hose, which can be used alternatively.
For this course, I'll be using the Hohner Performer Melodica 37 Black, a popular choice among players for its durability and sound quality. It covers a full 3 octave range (F3 to F6) and is comparable to a female soprano vocal range, making it perfect for melody playing.
