Hole two and four especially, can be bent down three times. Little Walter does this all the times
on his Bb tunes. All of that bending and tone warping is dependant on how your oral cavity is shaped,how tight the lips are on the hole, and how you manipulate the throat muscles. Addition changes in the sound can be accomplished through cupping the harp a certain way, creating an air pocket that traps the sound and then suddenly releasing it.
