When you’re winding down, scrolling along, thinking about the ups and the downs of the day, and you stop to take a chance on a video by a musician whom you’ve never heard of, and you discover a performance that’s captivatingly beautiful. You make note of the name, Angela Lancieri, and you write it out so you don’t forget this particular artist, because for a moment you were transported, so you say thank you to this gifted person for sharing their gift because you realize that whatever kind of day you were having just became brighter, better, and more peaceful.
I kinda read this as alternative lyrics 😅
....then you misplace the paper with the name, and you are not saving your UA-cam watch history so you cannot bring it again to show your friends. And you feel sad. Then, a couple years later, the algorithm gives you another chance! So you're happy again, for a time. 😎✌️
Beautifully said 👍🏽
Omg..exactly what I was thinking watching her then I read your comment 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Well expressed Rex...
One of the true pleasures of UA-cam is “stumbling” upon a musician like Angela Lancieri, who just knocks you off your chair.
Beautiful playing!
Indeed!
I'm 68 and I grew up with The Beatles. That is an excellent rendition of the tune, Bravo!
Ditto, 76

Ditto - 68.
It’s marvellous 🙏🏼
@@timeno1763 Ditto -- 68 here, too. She sure made beautiful music.
68 as well. Their music shaped my world and my youth and became the benchmark for all who came after. How fortunate we all are.
Ya gotta love anyone who takes the time to figure out how to fingerpick a 12-string. Always delightful.
I tried it once. Felt like trying to play a cheese multislicer.
@@johnbruno6868 Until you figure it out, yeah. But once you do, you really have something special.
Tough to hit harmonics like that on a 12 string.
Finger pick hell! Gotta admire anyone who takes the time to tune one!!!!
@@davidmay5338 I believe that Leo Kottke became the excellent raconteur that he is, because of changing tunings on his twelve stringers.
She’s got that natural harmonics thing down pat. Lovely!
This is not only someone who so skillfully wields an instrument but also someone who can arrange an already beautiful song and melody into something ethereal
Jesus Christ the good true sovereign God cares about you my friend
may you trust in Him
@@joshua2400 Amen brother Jesus loves us all 🙏
Jesus is fake news.
@@designergoose1938 How do you know that, and while your explaing please provide any proof that your god exists.
@@patrickkelly7085 Why do you care?
I can't imagine how many hours were spent practicing this to be able to pick that smoothly . I pray that when I die, wherever I go, there is music. And music like this. What a gift.
Played this in a rock band when I was a kid. My father who didn't like rock & roll could hardly believe this was a Beatle song. This was a beautiful rendition, brought tears to my eyes: Bravo!!!
This rendition flows effortlessly through my Rubber Soul.
Nice .😊.I see what you did there
I spent a hard days night trying to copy it!
Here I am, a year later, enjoying this beautiful guitar playing again! Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Wow… As a Musician I have to not only say that is impressive but pretty darn delightful and masterfully talented and super melodically executed..!! Thank you Ms. Lancieri for uploading this Gem.
The Beatles sure do have staying power, especially when talented young people interpret their music as beautifully as this.
Thing about the beatles - The songs might be pop simple but they're not simple. They've got real musical soul in them that modern industry pop just replaces with a mastercrafted marketing campaign instead. That might make them popular and hit charts, but there's no staying power in the long run.
Through wonderful artists like this lovely lady, The Beatles shall live in perpetuity. More like this please.

depends if human species leaves the planet and continues having children..
...Children lost in time.
The Beatles are the modern day Mozart, if you know what I mean.
I’m a huge Beatles’ fan!
When I play “Norwegian Wood” on my 6 or 12 string without making a mistake (to my ears), I’m quite pleased with myself.
When I saw Angela confidently embracing her 12 string guitar, about to play one of my favourite Beatles’ songs, I was immediately interested.
Then Angela played the song’s introduction using harmonics! At that point, I knew that I was in for an amazing musical treat. What followed was spectacular and unique. I sat mesmerized by Angela’s deft touch with her right hand. Wow and with harmonics throughout, like subtle brushstrokes on a canvas.
I’ve heard this song hundreds of times, but watching Angela’s 2 minute masterful performance, it was like I was hearing “Norwegian Wood” for the first time. I am truly amazed.
One of the things that always impresses me is how incredibly talented musicians, regardless of the instrument being played, interpret and transform the rich melodies of The Beatles, and make the song an expression of their own artistry, skill, and intuitive selves. Angela’s stunningly beautiful performance of “Norwegian Wood” is a perfect example of what I’m trying to express. The song is a Lennon & McCartney composition, but Angela breathed life into it, and made it her very own. Yes, she has wonderful skill and technique, but Angela didn’t merely intellectualize the song, she gave the song another entirely different dimension or soul. As an artist, Angela recreated a Beatles’ classic. Not many musicians can make that claim. Thank you, Angela.
Ted 😘
You write too long about something I don't care
@@pcmatt9831 Hi Matt, I hope you have a great day doing what you enjoy. Be well!
@@pcmatt9831 .... and you were dumb enough to read it?
I’m always amazed at how deeply music can touch someone. Thanks for sharing Ted. Cheers!
I love it when I hear today's musicians doing covers of Beatles' tunes. Back in the early sixties, I never thought they would last forever, but it looks like they will.
The artistry of the Beatles and the incomparable volumn of true classics is staggering. You live forever in music like Beethoven, Mozart McCartney and Lennon.
@@bigdaddy3919 Well put and so true! I try to write/record relatable music that is well written, but I'll never be in the same room with these folks! Thanks and take care.
If you think about it, apart from classical music, it’s mostly folk songs and rock & roll music that has endured.
Angela took that song to places even the Beatles didn't go. What a beautiful rendition. Lovely.
Lost my 12-string (a cedar Lowden) in the Hermits Peak Fire and had just about decided not to bother getting a replacement. You changed my mind with this beautiful arrangement played so well. Thank you.
So sorry, I have empathy for you as we lost most everything in the big Northern California of 2018, the Camp Fire. Except I did grab my guitars.
I have a Guild 12 that I love
Lessons for a good life - never leave your music.
@@smilingfox8978 Thank you for drawing me back to Angela’s channel, smilingfox. I’m smiling again, inside and out, listening to her tunes this morning after a long year of frustrating, all-consuming distractions struggling with FEMA.
@fluxfaze I struggled to find my instrument in life. Finally, I decided it is my voice. It goes with me wherever I go. Whether in song or just a kind word that makes a difference to someone. Glad your smile is on your face.
Awesome decision
The 12-string guitar is a very under rated acoustic instrument. Extremely well done here👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
No it isn't.
en el regional mexicano se utilizan mucho las guitarras de 12 cuerdas
@@ParaBellum2024 Do you play? If so, do you own a 12-string? I’m asking from a player’s perspective. My favorite playing experience is when I break out my acoustic 12-string. There’s just something magical about it.
@@Iron_Thunderstorm Thank you. Yes, I have a Crafter DE8/12, which is an electro-acoustic 12 string.
Who exactly is going around rating stringed instruments? Is there a ratings board? International system of standardized ratings?
Boy, does that take me back a whole lot of decades. Very peaceful and relaxing.
I'm a classical guitar player always fascinated about the sound of 12 strings guitar. She makes it so easy to pluck and fret. ☺
Check out Ralph Towner, classical maestro who also plays 12-string, doing his own unique style of jazz that approaches classical to some degree, IMO. IIRC, his 1979 ECM recording ‘Solo Concert’ has a nice proportion of either guitar along with a wonderful song selection.
This sounds so ethereal. Didn't expect the harmonics at the end, quite a unique twist. Lovely.
My band, late 60s early 70s, I played my 12 string. Nothing like this, young lady. Absolutely fine rendition and especially your interpretation. Wonderful
Joseph 😘❤
I played in a band that had a hit with this song. As Joseph says, I couldn't play it like this! Fantastic!
Just beautiful. ❤️
I'm pretty sure although talented she is actually a he and is not a biological female, look at his arms and hands and face, definitely not feminine. If I'm wrong I apologize in advance.
I have always Loved this song !!!
That was the best dam Norwegian Wood I have heard. Smooth and brilliant.
One of my favourite songs Angela. you certainly didn't disappoint. Beautifully played, Thank you.
I've played 12strings all my life.
This is admirable and outstanding.
I'm 70.
Not humanly possible! Your harmonic notes were perfect. That is cleanest fingers the playing on a 12 string that I have ever heard. Bravo, kid! Bravo!
It's very possible, just takes alot of practise over many hours..
If you like harmonics, see this: ua-cam.com/video/0cHeNscKZN0/v-deo.html&ab_channel=TommyEmmanuel
It is possible when the base is a conservatory with a graduation on a specific field and an average training of 3 hours approx. per day, since then.
The best hands and fingers i've ever seen on a 12 string
Such a beautiful transcription. The twelve string almost gives that hint of sitar. Love it!
The 12 string adds another dimension to this already beautiful song. Angela, you are an extremely talented musician. I would love to hear more if you would be so kind.
The integration of harmonics was beautifully done!
Angela, What beautiful life you breathed into this song. You are an extraordinaire. ❤
the picking dexterity, is what I would have to practice again and again to even come close to you. NW is one of those iconic musical pieces to take to another level. Blessings to you and your familia. Regards, Roberto Cañedo .
You have impeccable touch. I listened with my eyes closed at the end. All the notes rang true. The algorithm was kind this evening.
Not only does she do the Beatles proud but she plays the Martin guitar like a master, definitely enjoyed it , thank you.
This took me back my dad playing by himself at night. I would wake up sometimes and my dad would just be noodling and playing melodies. This is one I vividly recall. I found your preformancw the week my dad passed. Thank you for your music and helping to remind me of that joyous memory during a difficult time of grief. Your playing has brought a beautiful catharsis to me personally and inspired so many based on the comments. I wish you best and good strings and strong fingers.
Thankyou for sharing a beautiful story, I too had a similar experience.
Beautiful. Simply beautiful. You gently caressed the song and gave it all the love of a newborn.
John is smiling and bowing to this. Brilliant rendition. It doesn't need anything else. The 12 string has it all encumbered.
Absolutely beautiful playing. Angela is a master guitarist. Well done
And then some
@@poisonbg1
+ some more too!😄😉👍
open g or d?
Your delicate, precise way of playing this song, is nothing short of Lovely!
I’m about 30 months into learning guitar. It’s slow, probably from minor carpal tunnel, and being 74 years old. The 13 string is sweet sounding. Yes I will donate to your musical journey. I speak Spanish, so it’s close to Italian. Buenas y continua tu guitara
She does that musical composition justice , very talented guitarist.
OMG..this made me cry.
total mastery of the 12 string by this gorgeous woman.
I love the 12 string been playing Acoustic and electric 12 strings for over 30 years..
never heard anyone play the 12 string with as much feel,and command as this woman.
Love the stunning use of the harmonics!
Ron 😘❤
Caused me to stayed seated
Hi Angela. Lovely. I'm guessing this is a D35?
I am in awe. The mastery of her playing is amazing. The guitar is incredible too with such a strong bass but wonderful, clear upper end.
Absolutely gorgeous. Sounds like two people playing. Amazing.
Outstanding! Love guitar music and especially the 12 string❣❣
Wow, such a beautiful rendition of a favorite song. I’m almost in tears, hearing this angelic music! Thank you, beautiful lady! You made my day!!!
I had goosebumps throughout the whole song!!! Absolutely incredible!!!
One of the best covers I’ve ever heard.
Love your fingerpicking & the sound of your Martin 12-string!
Superba interpretazione, dopo tutti questi anni mi dà ancora i brividi... mi chiedo quanti giovani d'oggi sentono la bellezza di questa musica immortale.
I love how big and loud this is. You always expect people to play it all soft and like a lullaby. Well done!
Martin guitars are like that .
Beautiful rendition. I listened it several times in a row. Enchanted.
Probably the most beautiful song ever written … and Angela does it …. my arms are waving and a tear in my eye. Wonderful.
Can't beat the sound of a 12 string guitar, especially when played like this. 👌
Absolutely gorgeous,......the harmonics were on a level I have never heard in my own 40+ years of playing guitar myself.
This transports me to age 4. (1965) My mom would throw Beatle parties for my sisters and the kids in the neighborhood who would come to dance, snack, and trade cards from our gum packs, in order to complete one of the Fabulous Four’s Faces. It’s all been recorded. The exhilaration on our faces is palpable. Norwegian Wood elicits a strange feeling and probably bc it was one of my first memories of their songs.. Thanks mom! I Love You for such a great life❣️😘💃🏻🤸♂️🤸♂️
Ohhh.. And how could I forget to Thank You Angela for that little trip.. I Love you too! That was terrific!!!🤗
I was 5 years old, what a great mom you had!! I wish I grew up in your neighborhood!!
E' un grandissimo piacere guardarti ed ascoltarti !!!!
The dynamics make it, the thumbwork, and never overdoing it with the harmonics and effects. Terrific.
The 6-string is truly an AMAZING instrument !!!
The 12-string takes it to an entirely different level !!!
TRULY AMAZING !!!
🙂❤️
amazing
OUTSTANDING and that 12 string sounds GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORGEOUS.
The most beautiful rendition I ever heard 😢
Love your use of harmonics to make it your own.
Kevin 🙂❤
This is played on a 12 string and they are notoriously difficult to play.
The way Angela uses different techniques such as chords, melody and harmonics is truly amazing.
And an alternate (open) tuning.
Not difficult to play
@@nik1954 ok, but such musicality is shown here….
wow...sempre più brava...grandissima Angela👏👏👏👏👏👏
One of my favorite Beatles songs. Thank you.
I’ve been playing a 12 string for 50 years. I used to think I was pretty good. Tremendous talent and performance!
I would love to hear you play this song on a 12 string .
50 years!!!!! that's crazy
I started playing when I was 12. I’m 68 now! Began playing a 12 string almost exclusively in the early 70’s(Beatle, Birds etc). Still playing regularly in a duo. We play at local venues, weddings and private parties. Have a few things on YT under Not Even Brothers.
Wow, I came across this video by chance and what an amazing arrangement. You completely made it your own and your skill is extraordinary. 🙏🙏
All I can say is THANK YOU ANGELA!
I love this song. It never gets played enough.
Wow... I'm going through 12 string songs because i have one being shipped to me and found this. Truly inspiring. More please!
never forget the first time I heard this song and what it felt like in my young life. any rendition is appreciated like echoes of feelings.
This just shimmers. Well done.
Beautiful! I'm a bass player, and I've been playing alongside of you during this song. Love it! Absolutely beautiful!
The sustain on the last note played is amazing!!!! Its still ringing in my head!!!!
Angela, your talent is a gift to always be shared. Thank you for sharing. GM
Goosebumps and smiles here. The use of harmonics for the melody is genius, nothing short of amazing. And such a clean sound. Wonderful job!
Thank you UA-cam for recommending this video!
Thank you Angela for blessing us with a gorgeous and unique cover of a great song.
Much respect!
Wow, well done. I loved it! Very refreshing on this afternoon, thank you. :)
Superb rendition of a favourite John Lennon song. The harmonics were very well executed. The 12 string gave the song a magical quality.
So I lit a fire, isn't it good Norwegian Wood.
I have just listened to this eight times in a row. I never imagined Norwegian Wood could sound so good, John Lennon must be looking down from wherever he is and feeling very proud. Well done! Now to go and get out my 12 string.
its a beautiful playing my friend 100% agreed, and I do wish John lennon cared about Jesus, but he rejected God at every step of the way sadly
may you find hope and trust in Jesus Christ my miraculous healer took away my Chronic years long breathing issue that plagued me most every night, instantly in an anointed prayer
Jesus Christ who was prophecied to come save us from our sins on that cross for thousands of years, loves you
Didn't George write this? And sing it? Get the facts right
@Joshua, this is not the time or place for getting that out and swinging it around.
All people see is the knob.
@@funk6785 Apparently it was mostly John's song (lead vocals by John), with Paul contributing some middle lyrics and high harmonies, and then credited as a whole to Lennon-McCartney. Cheers!
This video made me smile. Having owned many 12 stringed guitars over the last 50+ years, you did this song and this instrument proudly. LOVED the harmonics. The whole piece was so cleanly played. NICELY DONE!
This makes me realize that we were caught up so much in the personalities of the Beatles that we forgot sometimes to just listen to the music.
Being there from the beginning and that's all we did was enjoy listening to their music knowing literally every word from every song... ✌
S O V E R Y T R U E . . .
well-said
I agree one hundred percent!
What do you mean we? It's always been just about the music for me.
Never cared about what or who the Beatles were doing. IT WAS ALWAYS ABOUT THE MUSIC AND STILL IS. HOLDS UP UNBELIEVABLY WELL.
That was just incredible Angela, a beautiful tune played with such clarity and feeling. Loved it, thanks.
Thank you for listening, Gary! 🙂❤
Awesome rendition of this wonderful song ! Almost magical ! You rock !
It's quite apparent to me Norwegian Wood runs through your veins as well as your spirit! Absolutely gorgeous soulful rendition. Emotionally palpable and profoundly stirring. Thank you for sharing your gift and I'm more than delighted to hit the subscribe button 💜
Best instrumental arrangement I've ever heard!
Very nostalgic song my mom would play this on vinyl when I was young..very beautiful performance..again I’m loving the harmonics..such a light touch really resonates!
Bravo. I've been playing since I was nine years old (now 61) and I can truly appreciate this marvelous performance!
That takes me back to my childhood……sixty odd years ago! A charming song by a charming ( and still 😊around Beatle) and a very pleasant time in my life❤️🎸
Marvelous! I'm 78 yr old, can play that on several instruments, and I enjoyed that immensely! 🤠
The guitar is worthy of your talent. Beautiful chimes and tingles.
Thank you, Michael !❤😘
This is wonderful, so ethereal, subtle and mesmerising. I'm absolutely enchanted with this rendition.
Memories of my lost youth! It brought me to tears, thank you for such a beautiful rendition.
Such a treat! Thank you for the spell you cast: the rendition of this song, enchanting
This gave me chills!! That 12 string is beautiful and beautifully played.Thank you for two minutes of bliss.
Norwegian Wood has been one of my favourite songs for half a century, but for some reason I hadn't thought of it as an instrumental until now. This is a beautiful performance, thank you. 😎🎶❤️
I am glad you loved it! Jesus Christ the good true sovereign God cares about you my friend
may you trust in Him and His ways
@@joshua2400 I am not a Christian and reject the Pauline redemption theology of the Church. However unlike most Christians I live my life according to the teaching of Jesus in the gospels, particularly that given by Matthew. Best wishes to you and your family.
Beautiful that's the second best arrangement I've ever heard.
One of the ggreatest songs of all time and you just performed it masterfully.
Beautiful sounds played by a gifted musician
Beautiful sounds playing byal a gifted music 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
At first I thought it was 2 guitars, then I thought no....there's a whole band playing god knows what instruments.... then I realized how epic sounding it is indeed... for what's going on. Had it on loop for a while, tickling my ears with all of the glorious harmonics & notes this generated. A symphony of one!
A priceless rendition indeed.
I am mesmerized by the sound of the 12-string guitar, going all the way back to the 60s when bands like the Byrds and the Seekers featured it. The complexity of the chorus of strings being played simultaneously is very powerful, and very enriching.
Beautiful. Encore! Encore!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
