Introducing in this issue, "Message from Mark Holdaway", a monthly column where I let my thoughts hang out for the world to see. In this issue, you'll learn how two beleaguered ideas finally found each other.
The KTabS program has been my primary tool for documenting and disseminating
kalimba music in a form that other people can readily understand.
This month, I discuss:
The first Hugh Tracey Kalimba I ever saw was the Alto, at 141 Western Ave.
in Cambridge, Mass., back in 1986. Hearing that beautiful instrument
changed my life! I immediately ran out and got a Hugh Tracey Kalimba,
but didn't realize until later that I had bought a different model...
The harmonica is a simple instrument that you can play with
many instruments, including the kalimba! In this five part series, you will learn
how the harmonica and the kalimba are related, and why the harmonica
is such a great companion to the kalimba.
