    The National Artist of the Philippines/composer Levi Celerio said that during the Japanese Occupation of the Philippines, he was a civilian walking along this secret path to avoid Japanese soldiers.
    However, there was a whole troop of Japanese there who saw him and held him at gunpoint, asking him if he was a guerilla. He said "No. Musician". He grabbed the nearest object, a bunch of leaves, and started playing them. He said the soldiers sang along and laughed before letting him go.

      Take it easy. try lots of different leaves. try play on the top lip, if that doesn't work try the bottom lip. Mostly the problem is that air is escaping from somewhere and it should only leave at one place. Keep on trying and you will get it right!
