The chromatic harmonica is a type of harmonica that uses a button-activated sliding bar to redirect air from the hole in the mouthpiece to the selected reed-plate desired. When the button is not pressed, an altered diatonic major scale of the key of the harmonica is available, while depressing the button accesses the same scale a semitone higher in each hole. Thus, the instrument is capable of playing the 12 notes of the Western chromatic scale. The chromatic harmonica can thus be contrasted with a standard harmonica, which can play only the notes in a given musical key.

  • Chromatická harmonika je malý dechový a jazýčkový hudební nástroj. Lze na ni hrát vše, od nejjednodušších lidových písní po nejobtížnější skladby vážné hudby. Stejně jako s lidským hlasem, můžeme s tóny harmoniky kreativně pracovat. Díky tomu je hra každého hráče jedinečná a originální. S dobrým návodem je možné zahrát první lidovou píseň už za několik minut. (cs)
  • The chromatic harmonica is a type of harmonica that uses a button-activated sliding bar to redirect air from the hole in the mouthpiece to the selected reed-plate desired. When the button is not pressed, an altered diatonic major scale of the key of the harmonica is available, while depressing the button accesses the same scale a semitone higher in each hole. Thus, the instrument is capable of playing the 12 notes of the Western chromatic scale. The chromatic harmonica can thus be contrasted with a standard harmonica, which can play only the notes in a given musical key. Famously accomplished chromatic harmonica players include classical players Larry Adler, Tommy Reilly, , Sigmund Groven, and Willi Burger, jazz players Toots Thielemans, Mathias Heise, Gregoire Maret, Yvonnick Prene, Hendrik Meurkens, and William Galison, and popular musicians Norton Buffalo and Stevie Wonder. Chromatic harmonicas are usually 12, 14 or 16 holes long. The 12-hole chromatic is available in 12 keys, but because the entire chromatic scale is available by definition, most professionals stick with the key of C—which is perhaps easier to remember, since slide in will automatically be the sharps of the associated note. Chromatic harmonicas are traditionally tuned to solo tuning, which has a similar layout to the diatonic's Richter tuning except that it eliminates the G on the draw and doubles the Cs that are not on the ends of the instrument. In the standard 12-hole chromatic in C the lowest note is middle C, while 16-hole variants start one octave lower. For the 16-hole variant, the layout is usually as follows. Note that the "D" in the last key-in draw note is common, though by no means present in all chromatic harmonicas. (en)
  • Een chromatische mondharmonica is een mondharmonica waarop een chromatische toonladder te spelen is (in tegenstelling tot een diatonische mondharmonica waarop dat niet het geval is). De chromatische mondharmonica bestaat in feite uit twee diatonische mondharmonica's boven elkaar die een halve toon van elkaar verschillen. Met een schuif kan de lucht tot een van de twee toonrijen toegelaten worden, waardoor alle chromatische tonen beschikbaar zijn. Hierdoor komen de tonica en de subdominant dubbel op het instrument voor. Enkele bekende bespelers van de chromatische mondharmonica zijn de Belgische muzikant Jean 'Toots' Thielemans, Stevie Wonder en de Nederlandse Hermine Deurloo. (nl)
