Harmonics on the double bass - how they work!

[@chriswestbass]

Thanks for featuring my video, Jason! I hope everyone has fun exploring the amazing world of bass harmonics!

[@doublebasshq]

I love this video, Chris!

I’ve always used harmonics like this in a lot of Bottesini’s solos but I never knew the full physics of how it worked, it’s a very fascinating topic

I found out taht you could do an artificial harmonic by touching Eb and G and i was like "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SORCERY" but good to know it wasn't witchcraft, but maths 😅

[@doublebasshq]

It's wild to discover that, right? Thanks for checking this out!

If people teached natural harmonics on the first class of every string instrument the world would be a perfectly on tune world 🥲

[@GregoryFaught]

Harmonics are tuned in just intonation, if you played them in any other intonation system the 3rd and 7th partial would be noticeably flat
