This collection of ten short pieces for chromatic harmonica offers a path of technical and musical exploration that transcends mere practice. Each piece introduces specific resources—slurs, mordents, thirds, fifths, sixths, octaves, and their variations—framed within genres and rhythms primarily linked to argentine folklore, Andean music, and tango, among others. Technical skill is never an end in itself, but rather a means to expand the instrument’s expressive range.
