Brandon Mitchell performs Bach Gigue from Cello Suite No. 1


This is the 100th bass video on the blog! Each one has some commentary and information about the player, hall, orchestra, piece, and the like, so have fun browsing through the bass video archives and checking out all the differences in playing styles.

DePaul University student Brandon Mitchell is seen here performing the second movement of the Hindemith Sonata. Click here for his performance of the first movement, here for the second movement, or click here for his performance of the first movement of the Bottesini Concerto.

Brandon also left a very perceptive comment on my article Advice for Aspiring Music Performance Majors. High school students looking to enter the music performance industry might find it very interesting to hear the perspective of a performer who is wrapping up an undergraduate performance degree.

    What should I do to make sure that the notes in the slurs are played clearly, considering the fact that I play the gigue from the cello suite no.1 directly off the cello score?
