Subject: Brasser's Layout Gen

Just thought I'd post this little bitty to the lot
of us all. I've begun playing in a wicked
klezmer band this month (upright bass, cittern,
fidl, harmonica) and Mike Will's diatonic
harp layout generator has been incredibly
useful for communication between the
fidler and myself, where it regards our being
in-tune with/to one another and also for the
necessary transposing of fidl-tunes for
play on the harmonica.

With the layout generator, I've been able to
give the standard musical scales to the fidler
for a given harp or harps I use on a
particular piece.

She absolutely loves the A#minor scale
that works so with a Bb harp.

Much thanks again to Mike for his great
diatonic resource, and to all those on
the list over the years that have been
invaluable in helping me communicate
with musicians of other instruments just
what the how and why I do what I do on
my harps corresponds to theirown
approaches on their instruments and in
a broad musical manner besides.
