Bravo, Jason! Brilliant as always!
By the way, when are you gonna make a video of yourself playing Sibelius' violin concerto? Or how about one of the Bach partitas for solo violin? If there's one person in the world who could play these on harp it's definitely you.
Thanks for all the inspiration!

Speaking of playing "classical" harmonica, I think the possibilities are endless. Many classical violin pieces are so gorgeous on the violin, but they could also be played on harmonica with a very beautiful, singing tone using lots of vibrato. You could take a movement from any violin concerto - Sibelius, etc. Or you take the very beautiful "Vocalise" by Rachmaninoff or you could do one of Fritz Kreisler's pieces, etc., etc. In youtube, Buddy Greene does a nice classical medley - slow and more upbeat stuff. And then Philip Achille does Bach's "Air On The G String." Right now, I am watching Rudy Hung and listening to his rendition of Paganini's "Mose-Fantasia." He is wonderful!!!

P.S. Rudy Hung also does Paganini's violin Caprice No. 9 and the Larghetto from Tartini's The Devil's Trill! Wow!
