Description
HOHNER! A lot has happened since Matthias Hohner founded his company in 1857. Through consistently high quality, Hohner became the world leader in harmonicas and accordions, with a worldwide network of artists, from beginner to professional. Our instruments have had an immense impact on the development of blues, have become an important part of worldwide folk and traditional music, play an important role in the steady development of jazz, and have found a place on the classical stage. Today, we continue to develop new instruments and improve existing ones. Always with the goal of enabling everyone anywhere to enjoy music. Jean-Jacques Milteau, born on April 17, 1950 in Paris, is a French blues harp player, singer and songwriter. Jean-Jacques became interested in the harmonica when he first heard folk and rock music (such as by Bob Dylan and the Rolling Stones) in the 1960s. He played with French singers such as Yves Montand, Eddy Mitchell, Jean-Jacques Goldman, Maxime Le Forestier, Barbara and Charles Aznavour various styles from blues to jazz. In 1989, Jean-Jacques recorded his first solo album and authored several textbooks on learning the harmonica.
