#Snufkin (original Swedish: #Snusmumrik[en] or Mumrik[en], Finnish: #Nuuskamuikkunen or Muikkunen) is a character in the #Moomin series of books authored by #Swedish-speaking Finn Tove Jansson, appearing in six of the nine books. He is the best friend and arguable love interest of the series' protagonist, #Moomintroll, and lives a nomadic lifestyle, only staying in #Moominvalley in the spring and summer, but leaving for warmer climates down south every winter.[1][2] He is the son of the elder Mymble and the Joxter, and is half-brother to the Mymble's daughter and Little My.
Tune Basics is the popular music #education series created by #NewZealand based #musician/content creator Kerin Gedge. It is designed to teach anybody who wants to learn the fundamentals or very basics of how to play #MusicalInstruments which includes #DiatonicHarmonica, #TremoloHarmonica with 24 holes, Tremolo #Harmonica with 16 holes, Tremolo Harmonica with 20 holes, #ChromaticHarmonica, kalimba with ten keys, recorder and #PennyWhistle (also known as #TinWhistle).
The aim of Tune Basics is to acquaint the student with clear graphic based #instructions for how to play simple and recognisable songs. Tune Basics will typically avoid delving too deeply into technique or musical styles but will, where possible, provide the pupil with relevant links to professional musicians who can take the learner deeper when they are ready to move on from basic #lessons.
Generally speaking Tune Basics will focus more on popular songs that are in the #PublicDomain. This is to protect the channel, Kerin Gedge, from any complications that may arise due to copyright claims. But it also aids the musical student with the belief that most popular public domain songs are already deeply embedded in the player’s subconscious, which lends itself to the learning experience. For example tunes like #TwinkleTwinkleLittleStar, #HappyBirthday or even #ChristmasSongs like #SilentNight or #JingleBells are so entrenched in modern western minds that learning the songs is “easy” because you’re already half way there!
Although on occasion #KerinGedge will provide a lesson on a modern popular song without monetising the video. Examples include #TheCoffinDanceMeme which became very popular during 2020, #BillyJoel’s #PianoMan or #Snufkin the harmonica playing wanderer from the #Moomin series.
#TuneBasics also provides #HarmonicaTabs #TinWhistleTabs /#PennyWhistleTabs and #KalimbaTabs on the Tune Basics blog, link provided above. Please be sure to browse our #TABS list as often we will provide TABS that are yet to be animated into #Tutorials. In other words you may find TABS for songs that aren’t available on the channel.
TuneBasics believes that ANYONE can learn to play. It doesn’t matter how old you are or what your musical background is. If you can follow the simple instructions provided in these videos then you’re well on your way to becoming a musician. But don’t expect to “get it” right away. Practice will always make perfect. Sometimes you may need to watch these tutorials a few times to get the hang of it. Most songs on Tune Basics are broken up into simple manageable phrases so learn one phrase at a time! Pause, practice and then continue. And when you’re ready to move onto more complicated lessons check out #LiamWar at #learntheharmonica.com or #TomlinLecki at #tomlinharmonicalessons.com.

Thanks for making this! I just got into the Moomin fandom, and I happen to have a harmonica but never knew how to play it. Even as an absolute beginner, I was able to easily understand this tutorial and now I can at least kinda play the song (needs some work though). I hope to see some other Snufkin song tutorials sometime (if there aren't more already)!

I recently learned how to play both Snufkin’s tune and Love Me Do on my harmonica, which is funny because both Snufkin and John Lennon are personal idols of mine who both played harmonicas with their own unique backstories (Snufkin inherited his from his sick aunt, while John stole his from a shop in Ireland while on a trip).

I had to put this into number form cuz my small smooth brain is weird like that, and that was such a funny experience. It was like cracking a code lmao cuz I was sittin there translating numbers into letters. I have a red and blue color-coded mess on a single sheet of printer paper and it's hilarious to look at.

As someone who's not a harmonica player, what type of harmonica would you recommend for this? (and a beginner looking to start) Diatonic, chromatic, or tremolo?
@KerinGedge
@KerinGedge 3 жыл бұрын
I'd say the most common to start with is a diatonic... however, I discovered a while after making this that one of the notes is not quite right, meaning the song can only be played 100% properly on a chromatic... check out this lesson by Liam Ward and you'll see what I mean kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fr2ppqtknpadgXk.html

well in this case just follow this finger, you can ignore the letters entirely. But if you were to google harmonica tabs you'll find that most tabs focus on the numbers any way. Is your harminica in the key of C? Let me know what key it is in and I can tell you another trick.
