Let Me Teach You The Saddest Song! BELLA CIAO Fingerstyle Ukulele

[@knegron631]

I love the fact that the ukulele is usually seen as a happy instrument and most people don’t think it can sound sad but it sounds so pretty when it is

[@MarcoCirilloUkulele]

Absolutely. The uke is a super instrument capable of a wide dynamic range :)

[@johnrobinson1140]

the ukulele has always been know as the underdog instrument of the musical world, but dont let its size or the haters fool you, in the hands of the right person its magically powerful

[@voidxdonuts]

I was thinking too then i was thinking maybe some people has try to Broke the rule of ukulele

[@shawneasley1735]

😔💙

[@ajart777]

I love how you talk about the music, the melody, and how you express your love, appreciation, respect, and admiration by calling the notes and chords "Beautiful". It is indeed beautiful.

[@mancub1589]

I wish more instructional videos were like this - step by step, string by string. Great lesson.

[@MarcoCirilloUkulele]

I am glad you like it :)

[@JR-wh2nf]

Thanks Marco. Your playing is beautiful and your teaching technique is very clear and helpful. I have many self taught ways of playing that need to be undone and your approach is helping greatly. 😁❤️

[@MarcoCirilloUkulele]

Thanks a lot for your support JR. Keep me posted on your progress :)

@@MarcoCirilloUkulele I love Bella Ciao!❤️ I use ukulele for writing songs - it’s so expressive. Thanks again for your inspirational style. Best wishes from Australia.

[@shawneasley1735]

I feel kind of sad today.. so this will be the perfect song to learn as hours drag through. Thank you Marco , the lights from your fingertips, will place me back on my rock 😔

Man, you are killing me!!! You bring soooo much emotion to what you are playing! And a huge thanks to your gift of explaining and teaching us in a clear understandable way!

Somehow I have missed that...such a wonderful composition of mind blowing tunes...thank you Marco!

The sadness is coming through and brings tears into my eyes

[@MarcoCirilloUkulele]

I hope you are not crying because it sounds bad hehe

[@el.p349]

Huge thanks for mentioning the backstory. It has great significance and meanings but sadly many of us did not know its true value. Besides that It's one of the most renowned/favorite italian song, so thanks for the lesson too. Keep up the good work!

[@norsemangg]

Good choice! I've been learning that song from Evgenii Grigorev's tabs (available cheap if you google it) Amazing, but way difficult-- worth the few bucks for the tab sheet ;)

I wrote comments hardly never, but now moment when i must do it. It so beautiful 🥰. One interesting question, where you take name of unusual accorda, like "dadd(#11)". Thanks for tutorial!!

[@MarxMan171]

recently went on a work experience trip to italy, I'd learnt the song previously and knew its history and loved it. They made us learn it in our mandatory Italian lessons, when you say G Minor tuning is that standard tuning? the first thing I did when I got up this morning was look for a ukulele cover of the song and found this great video, I've already got the melody down, just learning to add the chords now :)

[@errolschell9338]

This reminds me of pelagiaś song from captain Corelli mandolin; can you play this on the ukulele?

[@cananozogul2827]

Thanks, Marco amazing cover n lesson! I've been learning uke on my own for 1.5 years, I learned a lot of songs but I can't play even the easiest song continuously. I always stop between chords etc. Any recommendations?

[@singh3577]

Thanks a ton 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

This composition it layered with emotions.sadness and struggle of the farmers and simultaneously strong bold protest against fascism. This tune is revolutionary and appalling for today’s time and even for the future.

[@aggroalex5470]

I'm a newb. I understand the chords but the melody section when he says a number how do you know what string he is plucking?

[@johnjames88]

I am guessing you have figured this out already. But if you look at his tab sheet to the "Melody, Chords, and Fingerstyle" , 1 fret A string and open fret G string together, then 3 fret E string and 2 fret C string together. Look at the top and search PIMA uke Fingerstyle.

I wonder if you would consider, either sending me the full song with you playing the UKE as it's beyond my playing abilities at this time. However, the song and the lyrics are stunning. I sing in 10 languages including Italian and would dearly love to record this at the Languid, Melancholic pace you've demonstrated as it's sublime in my humble opinion of course? Sorry rambling now - Hope to hear from you. CIAO and Gracie Mille

[@Fenmier]

Yo, some of us are beginners here. would it be so hard to say what strings your plucking as you go to to through it. You just say "we have a chord" which is easy enough. Then you say "then we have the melody" I replayed this thing 50 times before I figured it out. And that was just the first couple chords.

@@MarcoCirilloUkulele what brand and wood? obviously, it's your playing that makes it beautiful, but I am interested in what ukelele you're using.

[@rebeccamyers7483]

Do you provide 3 different tabs in your patreon? Is there tab for each level or are they combined in a single tab? It is so helpful how your pictures on screen of chords lust the note names to help with my music theory. This is a beauriful arrangement like always.

Hi Rebecca. It’s one file with the three levels.

What happened to your Thumb?

[@izyxi9627]

this is much better if you could just simply give the tab while teaching the melody. lol

[@yula7344]

Il titolo punta ad una emozione elevata a primato (quel "più") che sai essere sempre soggettiva, infatti è l'interpretazione che la esprime, come tu stesso affermi. 'To be honest', dunque, trovo irritante servirsi di certi titoli a effetto. Tieni presente poi che è anche discutibile lasciare intendere che, essendo parte di contesti "tristi", una canzone debba esserlo di riflesso. Nel contesto drammatico (anzi, tragico) di regime e di guerra, per esempio, potrebbe suscitare invece stati d'animo di resistenza piuttosto vivaci e liberatori. E chissà che quel canto in un altro contesto non fosse servito ad alleviare dalle fatiche piuttosto che ad acuirle. Ovviamente uno è libero di dare il taglio emozionale che vuole ma elevarlo a primato svilisce più che avvalora. Non sto dunque criticando la tua interpretazione, peraltro ben illustrata musicalmente, bensì a certi tagli tendenziosi molto 'acchiappa-views', se mi permetti. Buon lavoro.

[@MarcoCirilloUkulele]

Trovo questa canzone molto triste. La struttura armonica e la melodia mi mettono sempre in uno stato d'animo pensieroso, triste, e molto malinconico. Il titolo é quindi pienamente soggettivo. Per me, questa canzone, é senza ombra di dubbio, la canzone piú triste che abbia mai suonato. Se durante la guerra questo canto popolare veniva cantato per alleviare lo stato d'animo del popolo, questo non cambia il mio stato d'animo quando suono il brano. Grazie mille per il commento!

[@pewds92]

what's wrong with your thumb ;( is it bleeding

[@MarcoCirilloUkulele]

Yep. I tried to use a plaster but it looked even worst hehe. I cut my finger a few hours before recording the video.
