I love the sound of claviola. It's very calming. Vintage hohner looks cool (a bit EWI-like)

@marianneoelund2940 4 года назад

My favorite of this group also. The sound is enchanting. I had no idea such an instrument existed. I have a Hohner soprano from the 1960's, but unfortunately some of the reeds have corroded and will not play.

Veronica Vidrak that's the one i have! i found it and thought it was just a toy. i thought about buying a "serious" one, but after listening to a lot of melodicas on youtube, nothing sounds better!

@MinYeo 6 лет назад

How I wish the vintage hohner melodicas could get popular again and receive some upgrade (perhaps on the components/outlook)... I honestly feel that despite the appearance though, the vintage hohner soprano sounds the nicest among them. It has a very unique sound that none of the modern melodicas I find could reproduce.

@whackacole3 6 лет назад

Veronica Vidrak I actually have that one at home.

@manfredstenman8185 3 года назад

I just got a vintage Hohner soprano from my dad. He found it in a thrift shop for 5€, scrolling through all the melodica RU-vid videos now to get some inspiration. I play the organ and piano so not too far away from my reportoire. :D

@concussedpercussionist2921 4 года назад

I have the vintage hohner soprano. It belonged to my grandmother and only received it recently from my mom. It's pretty awesome, although the top note needs to be either fixed or replaced, it's a little chipped at the bottom and won't support itself unless I push it back up.

@gwendolinaorg 4 года назад

What a lovely surprise I picked up a vintage Honher melodicia soprano in perfect condition with the instructions and the case at an opp shops a few years ago. I forgot all about it as I dont play anything. I just pulled it out and started playing with it and came accross this video. It sounds so lovely!

@MelodicaWorld 3 года назад

Nice!

@JaysonTuntland Год назад

I was excited by the Claviola until I researched its availability... thanks for the video. Nicely done.

@djcaseuk 2 года назад

on ebay found a brand new unused green honher soprano for under £25! after seeing your videos, I really wanted the orange vintage hohner student, but can't find it anywhere.. and the claviola is just incredible, but can't find it anywhere! this is the best video comparision and very well edited. makes it much easier to find the sound you are looking for, bravo!

@MelodicaWorld 2 года назад

Thanks for watching! Keep a look out for the orange hohner, I bought mine on ebay a few years ago. It was really cheap. Claviola's are very rare...

Got Melly back...well shes more like Melly the second but hey, whatever works xD

@Magnymbus 3 года назад

@MelodicaWorld 8 лет назад

Great starter instrument

@jamieramirez1 3 года назад

after listening to samples, from this video and others, the Angel sound is my favorite sound of them all. to me, it sounds the least like a harmonica, the most like an accordion. some people are saying it sounds like a "muffled" Yamaha, but i disagree. it has a richer, more resonant sound, whereas the Yamaha sound is crisp and clean, which is fine, just not what i wanted. i ended up finding an Angel on ebay, but unfortunately they're hard to find and therefore you pay through the nose for shipping, so they end up being in the $80-120 (USD) range! you're lucky you found an inexpensive one a few years back. maybe they quit making them, no idea why they're hard to find now.

@BoazKimMusic 9 лет назад

Great video! Thank you for playing the exact same example on each instrument so we can hear the difference in timbre. I have the vintage Hohner red alto melodica with those button keys (1:25). I feel that the keys are too noisy and that it is too difficult to play because of the spacing. Is there any advantage to this type? Thanks!

@phlattgetit 11 лет назад

You're welcome, I think the button keys are part of the unstable sound. If I remember correctly it's easy to sort of half-key on those? I'm sure the Hammond has a very even keybed.
