Currently, my favorite music to play on the melodica is classical music. But I also enjoy playing movie music and show tunes.
Today I started seriously working on Ave Maria in hopes of learning it. It is a beautiful piece and works rather well on the melodica. I've found that this instrument just has such a beautiful sound for this type of music.
So what do you play on your melodica?

I was searching through the discussions to see if any other myLotters play the melodica and was pleased to find your post. I have dabbled in some classical work for melodica, but I find it a bit difficult to arrange because on a melodica it's almost impossible to vary the attack and release of each note when multiple notes are being played at once. For this reason, I mostly play pop and rock tunes and just play along to the lead melody when I hear it on the radio or something. One thing I like to do is take the lead guitar lines of a song and play it on melodica through my guitar amplifier with certain effects and EQ to give it a really cool rock and roll type sound.
Happy myLotting and please continue the intense love affair that is owning and playing the melodica.
