    I think Nachum’s (jazzman1945) research on the different ways sound can be produced sans a mouthpiece is really quite revolutionary! It’s about the sound you blow into your melodica even BEFORE you press a key!

    I look at my melodicas in a different light now, Jazzman. Indeed, there’s so much more about playing them that has yet to be formally addressed in any tutor book. And like you said, there’s so much inherent musical potential in melodicas that has yet to be discovered! I get excited even just thinking about it!

    Thanks for opening my eyes, Jazzman!! 🙂

    Epilogue already?!?! That makes me feel kinda sad and empty…

    I learned a lot in this thread, man!! I really ’emptied my cup for it’, so to speak, and stopped using my mouthpiece. Translating speech into music and articulating every note you play rather ensures that I do not fall into the trap of playing just memorized phrases when I improvise. Also, I have begun to actually hear the difference in quality between articulated melodion sounds and those my mouth just randomly sends into the instrument. For sure, the idea that sound production in the melodion begins in the mouth is still novel for me but I can tell that it is helping me already.

    I look forward to the continuation, Jazzman. Thank you so much for sharing so generously!!!
