Bassist Jon Stefaniak recently forwarded a link to me featuring this excerpt of a video lesson with Metropolitan Orchestra Principal Bass Tim Cobb. Tim teaches a bass student (likely a Juilliard student, though this is not specified in the video notes) the primary first movement audition lick from Mozart’s Symphony No. 40.
The entire video lasts 25-35 minutes and is available for purchase at www.mucony.com, along with lots of other videos from New York-based teachers.
