Andres Segovia once said: "The guitar is a small orchestra. It is polyphonic. Every string is a different colour, a different voice.". I think campanella is a perfect example of how this is true. Thank you for the super clear explanation and demo of this technique!
You did this in the intro to "The Last Goodbye". I played it the usual way, all on 1 string, until I saw your version. Good to know the technique has a name. Thanks so much!
Hey Nathan! 👋 For some reason I don't recognize the name of this technique. I actually even didn't think of it as a known technique, but still I've been using it - just to blend the melodies, you know, but never thought it may have any named representation. Thanks for elaborating on this one, really interesting! Your instructional videos are a gem, man! 💪
Very cool! I've been listening to and playing classical for 35 years or more and never heard OF this, but have heard the technique in pieces and wondered what was going on. I recently learned Deathless Deep by Phillip Houghton and "Ding", so THAT'S what creates the magical dissonant chime. Learn something new everyday!
I dont think its possible to express how much i love harmonics! :) They are and always will be my favourite technique. My favourite song to play is Song for a KIng - Daniel Padim, which focuses heavily on harmonics, so i LOOOVEE to play it
Hi Nathan, I just found your channel and I love your Campanella tutorial. I don't play classical, but I do have a Martin 0000-18S (12 fret slot head 1 13/16" nut) that sort of resembles a classical guitar. I have tried this technique before but it was called Harp Style. Thank you for this nice video!
Ah you're right... Harmonics will always be my first true love. Maybe I should change the title to "Campanella: My (2nd) Favorite (and Weirdest) Melodic Technique" haha
I really love using artificial harmonics. Especially in Satie's Gynompedie No1 (to get that transposition by an octave). I've been practicing tremolo using your video and I love that technique too
The thing is, you should be sure when to use this technique, because sometimes sound ringing into each other creates a chaotic sound that obscures the melody. I guess imagining the melody as for example : cello, or harp makes the difference.I mean you almost never hear a cello melody ringing into each other.
Yeah that's why I imagined later in the video that it technically "breaks the rules" of melody. In a traditional sense, melody notes shouldn't ring out into each other. But we can always break rules creatively if this is the specific sound we want to go for in a certain context :)
Hello Nathan if your reading this I hope you're having a good day I'm sure that you know many of us classical guitarist (including me) have a lot of trouble improvising I was wondering if you could give us a few tips
I use campanella a lot in my arrangements actually... I didn't even know it had a name really. I learnt arrangement on my own before finding classical guitarist like Segovia and John Williams, and really they had me wondering why they chose closed string renderings of their pieces. For me, open strings and multiple sounding strings rock for two reason; 1. It gives your guitar the feeling of being more than a guitar. Most people are used to hearing one string at a time. This was one of the major allures that made me go full classical. When I play they're just wowed!! 2. The second reason I love campanella and open strings so much is that IT'S JUST SO MUCH EASIER!! Why make am already difficult instrument a whole world more difficult by choosing closed strings??
When you release that first D and move to the c# and B notes that release of the D is also a B note, how much of this technique requires watching for the releases to be part of the scale as well?
@@BeyondTheGuitarAcademy Hmm, ok - that might be a technique issue - when I release the d note, I can hear the B note (essentially a pull off but without trying to do that). It's pretty minor and without amplification I wouldn't even hear it, so maybe I am just overthinking it.

That link on CAMPANELLA STUDY SHEET MUSIC doesn't work :( I don't know where I can find it. :(
These tutorials are very underatted, appreciated none the less; I always learn something new. Thank you✌
It makes a bigger difference in person than over video for sure. Ukulele is what I play for this style because of its reentrant tuning.
You explain everything so good
Thanks for everything
You are the BEST teacher i found as a guitar player and also a gamer... 😁😁😁Your lessons are everything to me....Thank you so much.................👍👍
This is fantastic, I wasn't familiar with this as an actual technique. Thanks for sharing! 👍
Always good to see you, my friend!

Very true! Thanks for watching, Oliver
It sounds pretty nice! I'll give it a try in the next arrangement ;) Thanks a lot for another great quality video, Nathan!
Fantastic and outstanding guitarist as always! I'm trying to teach myself guitar over quarantine and your videos never cease to amaze and inspire me!
ah awesome! keep it up, David
Thanks for your great materials! By the way another great piece to study this technique is Tarrega, the third from the 7 little studies
Thank you, I haven't heard about this before! What a beauty a guitar can be !
Hey Nathan! That was a really informative video. Thanks, I will use it for sure.
You did this in the intro to "The Last Goodbye". I played it the usual way, all on 1 string, until I saw your version. Good to know the technique has a name. Thanks so much!
You're exactly right! Perfect example
Really I heard some part of the witcher
I like the "bell harmonics" technique, and maybe gonna sound weird but I like to play campanellas on the ukulele, I love that "high G" string

Lukasz! So good to see you over here, my friend. I've definitely heard you use this technique beautifully. Always love your arrangements!
I'm a big fan of this technique. Great to see a video about it! Thanks!!!
Glad you enjoyed it, Pete!
Very interesting Natt, will keep this in mine. Thank's
such a good job man

Thanks mate. Would this form part of the journey course/program perhaps.

You're my kinda people. Can never get enough harmonics!

Great video! Subscribed! Could you please shed some light on ‘appoggiatura’? Thank you 😊
My favorite is and will always be harmonics. Campanella comes second despite I do use it a lot, not gonna lie XD.
Ah you're right... Harmonics will always be my first true love. Maybe I should change the title to "Campanella: My (2nd) Favorite (and Weirdest) Melodic Technique" haha
I thought you were going to play 'la campanella'.
Love this!
I'm so glad!

If you could do a tutorial for the pirates of the Caribbean song you did, that would be amazing!

Dude Plss make another video on how to harmonize all over fretboard.

What ? Thats incredible
Pretty cool, right?
Beyond The Guitar Academy Yes man! Coolest things in guitar 1-Doing percussion 2-Campenella now 🤪3harmknics
Beyond The Guitar Academy Can you share video about Nails
It indeed sound very nice :)
P.S. I do this in the guitar pro:
Cmd+A, I :)
thanks Ruslan! Ooh very cool
When you release that first D and move to the c# and B notes that release of the D is also a B note, how much of this technique requires watching for the releases to be part of the scale as well?
I'm not sure I understand. You don't release the D until it's time to play the B.
@@BeyondTheGuitarAcademy Hmm, ok - that might be a technique issue - when I release the d note, I can hear the B note (essentially a pull off but without trying to do that). It's pretty minor and without amplification I wouldn't even hear it, so maybe I am just overthinking it.
ooo jeee, I always wanted to do the same technique but just am not bothered to find the notes
I can't be the first one to confuse him with Thomas Frank :D
Need more lesson
Are you anyway related to music is win
"then I'll release the d.."
*Giggity*
