SPAH -- Society for the Preservation and Advancement of the Harmonica

spah.org was created to support our mission and to support harmonica musicians and harmonica vendors throughout the world. Well will do this by communicating with the harmonica community about our organization, other harmonica organizations, events, websites and other information about harmonicas, harmonica players and harmonica music.

We want to inform everyone about the rich heritage of harmonica music, the many talented musicians currently making music with this phenomenal instrument, and the great pleasure to be derived from learning to play the harmonica.

The Society for the Preservation and Advancement of the Harmonica, know as SPAH, is an international non-profit organization incorporated in the State of Michigan in 1963 by a small group of visionary harmonica enthusiasts who were passionate about the instrument and about its relevance to contemporary and future music .

Our members, who hail from the far reaches of the globe, span the full spectrum of ability from newly minted beginners to the best harmonica players in the world. Our musicians play all styles and music and types of harmonicas.
