Do you need a foundation in music theory for the harmonica, and what music theory knowledge is neede

You need to know a little bit about music theory to learn any instrument, but you don't need to know a lot. For example, staves, simple notations, notes, velocity marks and other ** common sense as long as you know! It's not hard to learn!

If you know some simple music theory, you can get twice the result with half the effort, and you will benefit for life!

I agree with the one above.

When I started, I learned from the tutorials.

I'm also a ...... who doesn't understand music theory at allAt that time, I was studying music theory in the school choir...There is no talent ...... that areaI don't have the heart to learn.

After I went back last summer, my uncle watched me play casually, and he also knew the harmonica.

I played incoherently, so he told me to blow on the harmonica, and if one note was wrong, he would replace it with a mouthpiece, and the spacing and small spacing of the mouths of the harmonica would make it possible to ...... quicklyI practiced as he told for a while, and the effect was much faster than when I watched the tutorial......Now I can play all the songs I can hum.

Hope you can try it too.

Don't get started. In the future, you may feel the need for it yourself, and it is never too late to learn it then.

Folk artists who have never taken ** classes and can't read music, and even blind people can also play a lot of musical instruments. The reason is that I have good hearing, and I can remember the ** I have heard completely. Personally, I think good hearing is important.

Music theory has little to do with performance. If you want to compose, you should know music theory.

It depends on whether you have ** talent. At the very least, you have to find the right tone.

Don't music theory is rubbish.

No, just a little bit of notation. There are professional teachers to guide you, and two or three classes are enough.

You can learn some simple notation first, this is very easy. And then it's enough to entertain yourself.

Personally, I suggest that you should start from the basics, first buy a 24-hole polyphonic harmonica (don't stress it, want a monophonic one, because for beginners, the notes of the single note are more clear and recognizable, easy to use), anyway, the monophonic piano is not expensive, the process requirements are not high, a domestic one is enough, such as a swan's, Guoguang's 20 yuan is enough, if you want to import it (I personally think that there is no need to pursue imported pianos at this stage), Suzuki's study24 is a common, forty or fifty (don't let people lie, This is also assembled in China). When you can play the polyphonic instrument with ease, you can consider switching to the blues (10-hole) or chromatic scale according to your personal preference.

In short, polyphony is the basic, first play some simple pieces (such as those in primary school textbooks), and once you find a feeling, you can try to play whatever you want, but be careful to avoid semitones. When you can play the music according to the score, and the song you can sing can be played without the score (which is actually very simple), then you can try the 10-hole or chromatic scale, or you can try playing the double piano.

After the harmonica is cooked, the piano is like your own voice, as long as it is a song that you can sing, it will come to your mouth, if you just entertain yourself, this is enough. The requirements for music theory are also not high. (Of course, the congenital pentatonic is incomplete, and the singing is out of tune or memorize the score...)

Yes, the harmonica is also divided into several types, such as blues, chromatic scales, polyphony, etc., there are textbooks on the Internet, it is not difficult to get started, but it takes a lot of effort to achieve a small achievement.
