Bending Exercise 2
Okay, so the second bending exercise that I'd like to give you guys to use:
- Follow along: You can hear me do it, and then you can do it at your own pace with the tab. You have me as a reference.
This exercise involves holes two and three, and it goes like this:
I'll play that again.
Instructions:
- Follow along on the PDF while I demonstrate.
- We will utilize both half-tone bends on hole two and the first two half-tone bends on hole three.
I'll play it one last time.
Additional Bending Exercise
There's one more bending exercise included in this lesson that I also think is valuable, and you guys can practice this one as well.
- Listen to me: Play it, follow along on the tab, and then, of course, you can do this at your own pace, using me as a reference.
I'll play it again.

PT Gazell has earned his position as a master of the diatonic harmonica. After years as the sought-after side man and session player for some of Nashville's greatest, PT discovered half-valving and his music literally soared to new heights.
No other player combines his phrasing, melodic style, song choices and improvisational abilities the way he does - in the end, it is a style all his own. Using his own signature instrument, the Gazell Method diatonic manufactured by Seydel, PT proves that the harmonica is capable of far more than most of us believe.
Dig it!
In his courses, PT teaches half-valving straight from the source - so you can get started with the Gazell Method, master valved bends, and bring them into your own songs.
