Not something you hear every day. This is a clip from the West Virginia State Harmonica CHampionship jam. Steve Williams, we rode down together, playing "Dust My Broom" on a Seydel Hochlandklange during the contest jam.
It's about a minute in, you'll know it's him when you hear the tremolo ;)
I thought, hey, this is a neat, seldom-explored territory.

Steve's got me inspired to pick up the tremolo. I'm working on William Tell right now on a c/g combo. I have to flip the harp over for some of the notes, which looks kind of cool.

If you stack a C and a C# tremolo you can get all the notes although for the life of me I get lost trying. (I have a set of Huang Musette 24's designed to be played this way, although if it came with a hinge to hold them together like a bass harp it would work a lot better.)

It's easy to make one of those hinges. And trust me, I'm working on a fully chromatic tremolo.
Lip ripper, I did, not had a chance to look at it though, but I am looking forward to it.
I asked Steve about it, I was wrong, he wasn't playing the H-Klange, he was playing this custom tremolo I did for him, it's a Donauwellen, made around 1910.
