Hum, don't blow! Revised and expanded with 50% new material, 'The Complete How To Kazoo' promises to turn a whole new generation on to the joys of the kazoo. There's never been so much kazoo between two covers. Beginning with the all-important lesson of humming, it covers: kazoo history (it is arguably the first musical instrument invented in the United States-in Macon, Georgia, in the 1840s); fingering and embouchure (i.e., the best way to hold it in your mouth); instrument maintenance; how to recruit players for a kazoo orchestra; the power of doo (kazooing for inner wellness); kazooing for families, including the kazoo's natural gift for entertaining babies; and even kazoo marching band formation.
But perhaps best of all are the songs you can kazoo- amply demonstrated- including folk, rock, jazz, and even hip-hop. The seminal work, is how The New York Times described 'How To Kazoo' when it was originally published in 1983. And the public responded.
