Jazz harmonica player Chris Bauer was born on this day in 1960. Chris is the son of Bob Bauer who played with the Harmonicats and other harmonica bands, so he’s spent most of his life playing the harmonica. He has recorded one album, so far and he’s a really tasteful player.
Classical composer Alexander Tcherepnin wrote “Concerto for Harmonica and Orchestra” for John Sebastian in 1953. Tcherepnin died on this day in 1977.
That’s it for today. Have fun and practice!
