He is Awesome, best ever harmonica,beautiful piece of music played perfectly.
J'ai eu le privilège d'avoir assisté et participé à cet événement, bien comme d'enregistrer cette vidéo. C'est mon plaisir le partager avec tout le monde, Gildo.
Le variazione sul Carnevale di Venezia sono eccellenti che solo con la tua armonica riesci a fare!!!!!!!!!!!Cia hai lasciato troppo presto caro Franz. Ti ammirerò sempre!!!!!!!!!!
He was, he is and forever will be the fantastic harmonicist of the Planet Earth!!! Franz Chmel!!! THE HARMONICIST! God is with him! From BraSil, Marcelo Batista
Congratulations Franz Chmel great performing for her unearthly performance this harmonica. BóyaGaita. 1803ll.
Muito obrigado. Franz é um harmonicista de excepção que eu tive não só o prazer de conhecer pessoalmente, como de compartilhar os mesmos palcos. Um beijinho.
After so much practice for a long time with the lips and the throat to hurt...I finally could say, that I can in a way play this(and other compositions) in my harmonica (chromatic hohner 16), even this last difficult varation(7:05)...but I have still a long way to climb. But if it wasn't he I would not even start imagine that there is a way. He left this world in 2016. I will miss him.
Formidable interprétation ? Incroyable ! Merci Franz
please, you don't need to thank me. this is absolutely the best harmonica playing i've ever heard. he deserves many more compliments than this!
Fans of Top Gear will get it. Anyway, this is truly one of the most impressive musical performances I've ever seen. I'm trying to get more people to watch it.
Thanks one more time Franz, and keep in touch!
I play harmonica - only a bit, but I can sort-of knock out a tune. Because of my interest, I have listened to a lot of harmonica, largely on KZread, and there are some brilliant players. I'm always captivated by Edu da Gaita's Moto Perpetuo by Paganini (which took him 11 years to master), but for overall technical brilliance, I don't think there's anybody can hold a candle to Franz Chmel. He's just indescribably fantastic.
Merci harmonicajazz. Chmel est l'harmonica dans une autre dimension.
The best harmonica player I've ever seen, great!!!
You are just INCREDIBLE !!!!
i have this exact piece for saxophone. this is absolutely incredible. i never imagined this played on harmonica. bravo!
Wonderful! So beautiful!
Supeeeeeeer!Sehr schön,Anika.
amazing, Mr Chmel! I've never heard something so virtuoso on the harmonica... I became a fan of your harmonica playing
En mi opinión el mejor concertista de armonica cromatica👏👏👏👏
Merveilleux
Thanks Solomon. Franz is an incredible harmonica-player.
A very great chromatic harmonica player ! Thank you for posting that vidéo. CM.
Grato por me enviar este belo show de um instrumento tão simples e popular em quase todo mundo mas que necessita de uma técnica especial para executa-lo
Le grand Maitre de l'Hrmonica.
Hi, musicmankwork. I appreciated your kind comment a lot. I'll put some great harmonica interpretations more. Best wishes.
amazing! Funny thing is, I just started harmonica. I had an old copy of Arban's Conservatory sitting around, so I started working through it from the beginning. I glanced ahead to CoV, and doubted anyone had done it. So cool! 5*
Immenso
7:00 Really impressive. I bet no more than 3 people can do this piece.

Three? I doubt there are anymore. I only know Franz.
@chrisferreg Yes, I would add WOW WOW WOW WOW!!!! Thanks for your comment.
WOW this is amazing
Hi baobazz,I'm sure that Franz thanks your nice words. Also I'm an unconditional fan of him. Cheers
Meraviglioso.
Per suonare queste variazioni sul tema del carnevale di Venezia ci vuole un fiato da vendere e tu sei magnifico tanto che sembra che hai dei tasti come la fisarmonica. Eccellente.
Thas its amazing !!!
spectacular!!
Hi mowom01, Franz answered to your question - the score is an original for trumpet of J. P. Arban. Best wishes and thanks for your comment.
Show!!!
@Gustavojcasado Sin duda el más perfeccionista, con una virtuosidad increíble. Gracias por el comentário.
Le variazioni sul Carnevale di Venezia sono suonate da Dio, perché con l'armonica son difficili e complicate che solo tu Franz riuscivi a suonare!!!!Sei l'eccellenza dell'armonica. Ciaooooo!!!
Hi, Solomon! Thanks a lot for your compliment:-)) im happy, if i can hel you:-))) best wishes Franz
@colexionztelar Thanks, Chmel is a fantastic player.
Dear apesoup, Franz is a very special guy. He plays harmonica for at least fifty years and praticed about eight hours a day. Thanks for your comment
Saudações para si amigo Almeida, e obrigado pela sua avaliação.
Thanks khawkw, I'm sure that Franz appreciates your kind comment very much.
@TheSnidge Totally agree! Thanks for your comment.
Franz's technique is fantastic, but everything has a price. Franz works daily eight hours with his harmonica. Thanks for your comment dear hontonimaa.
Thank you Jared (ThaATXBalla). Certainly Franz thanks your nice comment.
Thanks Johanchin, Franz will certainlyappreciate your comment.
Hi Franz Strasbourg 1963 World Harmonica Championships - Trio Harmonia 1rst prize trios, you 1rst prize soloists and (I Think) your group Quartett Piccolo 1rst prize too (groups).Do you remember now? After I've the pleasure to see and listen you in France 1994 - Jonzac and Chelles, I was there also with Quarteto Harmonia. Best wishes, Gildo
Thanks for your comment.
Hi Franz, are you well? Thank you for the rectification, but as I know that there are Variations on the Carnival of Venice, of the own author (Niccolo Paganini), then my mistake. Best wishes and the mistake is corrected.
It works even more since James has a degree in music.
Thanks for your comment 71139. Franz is one of the best, or else the best harmonica player in the world
OK, you have to excuse my lack of knowledge about James May, but I'm Portuguese, so ... Thank you!
Agradecido pelo comentário. Devo retificar que embora popular ( é o instrumento mais tocado em todo o mundo) não tem nada de simples, antes pelo contrário. Franz trabalha oito horas diárias no mínimo, para conseguir este resultado.
Like! Around 3:36 I began to feel like Rodney Dangerfield when he was trying to w-rrr-ittt-e, b-d-b-d-b-d-b! :)
Curious what Mr. Chmel's embouchure was with his instrument? He appears to be tongue blocking, but his technique and speed suggest lip blocking.
Hi LittlezDDR, thanks for your comment
Hi Franz, Thanks for your explanation, is a matter of fact that the key of E flat major, in an instrument that tunes in B flat (trumpet), corresponds to the key of F major in the harmonica, than tunes in C. Do you remember me Franz? I was the chords-player of Trio Harmonia, how are you? Best wishes, Gildo.
@tutalind Thanks pal, Franz is a virtuoso.
Having played other types of wind instruments, I can't figure out how he can triple-tongue while inhaling.

try the whistle technique instead of tongue blocking. you will find it much easier to do alot more with the tongue. method for chromatic harmonica by max de aloe explains it.

It's easier said than done.
I do not know James May, but I know well Franz, and I can swear it's him. LOL
Mais mon cher harmonicajazz, malheureusement Garden il n'est pas plus entre nous, au contraire de Chmel, heureusement bien vivant et en pleine forme. Amitiés
Hi. I dont know for free:-((( im very sorry:-(( my scores is by: Hawkes & Son ( London)Ltd B.& H. 16008 but the original is in Es major and i play it in F major:-)))) it was a mistake of me:-) my soloscore is for Cornet in B flat..so is the score writen in F-major!!! i had not see that:-)))))))))) excuse my "English" Franz
The music score???? i play originalscore for trumpet. Only..the trumpet plays in Es-major and me in F-major. Franz
Hi tobymedland is a matter of fact that this piece, isn't an easy piece, but it's at least an excellent exercise. If you need help ask Franz, I'm sure that he won't deny you help. Cheers
Hi! The Carneval isnt by Paganini:-)) is by J.P.ARBAN best regards Franz
Welcome dear hontonimaa
Hi, Riskas5013:-) Trio Harmonia?? where we had meet us??? Franz

download the arban for trumpet textbook. its near the back of the pdf. its free download.
ThaATXBalla , i certaily would like the score!! can u do me his favour?? =)
I hope Franz can help you, tobymedland. Best wishes.
Do you like? Me too, thanks.
Hi:-) The different between Carneval by Paganini and Arban: Paganini is for Violin and Arban is for trumpet. For trumpet you can play all in original...for violin??? there are a lot of chords..and you cant play this:-))) Excuse my bad English:-)))))))))))) Franz
@bugler0090 He's good, right?
C'est fou.
Pour moi, le plus grand est Claude Garden; en plus Garden excellait aussi en jazz. Mais je trouve Chmel très grand aussi. CM.
Is it just me or does he look a lot like James May? And couldn't you see this being one of those odd skills he possesses?
???????;-)
