Harmonica, a small wind instrument, is a multi-reed instrument, which makes the metal reeds vibrate and sound by blowing or inhaling through the mouth; In the classification of musical instruments, it belongs to wind instruments with free springs. Its sound source is not an air column, but a reed with a length of 1.5 ~ 3.5 cm.
