Neil Patrick Harris wins the fifth Golden Mouth Organ!
Although the tune is unknown to me, I'm told it is The Ballad of Booth, from Assassins.
His hand placement was convincing and he played a clea

r melody, so even before being informed of the song title, I felt he'd earned his place in the ranks of honored players:
Billy Connolly - "Oh Susanna"
David Pogue - "Ode To Joy"
Jennifer Ouellette - "Home Sweet Home"
Hugh Laurie - "Oh Susanna"
Neil Patrick Harris - tune unknown
*Katy Couric - deserving, but un-honored for "Shenandoah"
Pogue used the mouth organ as more than a mere folk instrument - because of his choice of music and skillful execution, he maintains pride of place at the head of this illustrious company. :D
