The legacy of the first mouth harmonics produced in Europe in the 19th century. With an octave and a half in range, this diatonic model is perfect for musicians looking for an authentic and direct sound, keeping the focus on clear and uncomplicated melodies.

Just like the classic Colegial model, the Gloriosa features a system in which each hole contains only one note: one blown and one sucked into separate holes. This simplified layout makes learning and playing easier, allowing the musician to navigate the notes fluidly. Although it contains fewer notes than larger models, this mouth harmonica is ideal for popular songs and simple melodies, where the objective is to convey purity and clarity of sound.
