How can I clean and disinfect my chromatic harmonica (mouth played musical instrumen)?

I have this for years now but my young nephews sometimes played with it and leave streaks of saliva in it. Can I wash this with soap and water or any cleaning solutions? I am afraid that the metal parts might be harmed.


Efferdent denture cleaner. Warm water in a glass with one tablet. Soak for about an hour, rinse and dry. If it was going to rust it would have done so a long time ago from the saliva.

What is the advantage of using a diatonic harmonica over a chromatic harmonica?

Confused, tell me.


The advantage comes with whatever playing style you have. If you are playing jazz, you are most def. going to want to play a chromatic harmonica, while diatonics are better suited for blues and folk, simply because of their tuning differences.

Twin Cities Jazz Society announces 2010-11 'Jazz from J to Z' season

Has presented an annual series of concerts in a variety of venues. In the past, the series has seemed a bit big-band-heavy, but the organization has widened its scope in recent years. This year, for example, the series includes what I suspect is its first-ever free jazz event. (TCJS historians, you’re welcome to counter; I only looked back as far as 2004.)

About the new season, TCJS board member Andrea Canter says, “We’re trying to be more inclusive of a broader audience for jazz and more types of jazz. If [the free jazz ensemble] brings in enough of an audience, it may be an annual thing, a way of attracting new members who think all we do is big band.â€
