Best bass video… ever!
You’ve just gotta love this! Bass blog contributor Benjy recently sent me a link to the following video:
Nicola Moneta,the only Octobasse player in the world, who enjoyed Maestro Tan Dun’s Eroica, tries to work around the notes with his own instrument. He hopes the composer also will like the performance…..

Woah. I’ve wanted to see one of these in action ever since I first heard about them as a kid! I found out that there’s one on display at Musée de la Musique in Paris. When I finally went for the first time several years ago, I made a special trip to see it, and took some pictures of it. It’s amazing! I told a nearby guard how excited I was to finally see it in person, in my moderately decent French. I think she thought I was nuts, but who cares?
Cool video. Thanks for pointing it out!

I don’t know what is more funny, that someone is actually playing the octobass or that someone actually made the octobass?
