Double bassist Christian Buchholz has compiled a great set of photos featuring double bassist Guy Tuneh (also a former Contrabass Conversations interview guest). I put together the following video featuring some of these photos, with excerpts from Guy Tuneh’s performance of Kol Nidrei as background accompaniment. Enjoy, and if you like what you hear, you may want to subscribe (free!) to the Contrabass Conversations podcast (iTunes link) for interviews and performances from top-tier double bassists.

ha ha ha …….
This is not Guy Tuneh!
NO CHANCE that you’ll get such a privet pics of Guy Tuneh.
He protects his privet life like crazy!
He never speakes, just playing!!.
He say NO to every Bass-Magazin out there, when it comes to speak…
Believe me you’d win the LOTTO before!.
Nice try Jason, from you I wished less yello!

Woww,
Very Charismatic, the videos are poor quality, so this is charming to see his face so clear – And I have to say:
he has something rare in his face!
(sufer or very poetic… he lookes like 100 years old, not an easy life ahh… this kind of an Artist-face, like with GĂ©rard Depardieu, Jack Nicholson – like his face must not be esthetic – because his soul and way of playing is)

Madlein, yes it is Guy Tuneh!!
Some of the pictures were taken from his official
Website, (Is it clear why its called “official website…? so it has to be him),
the others are probably privte or took by some fans without the Maestro noticed.
I hope for Jason, that got Mr. Tuneh’s”good to go”
before posting this.
But Great, nice to get new view about him, his friends and the way he just is like evry day.
I was expected to see someone like “An Artist” with strange clothes drinking and smoking…
quite surprice, looks to me like very “Normal”
type…
Just without to pose, thing that even make him be much more adorable and beloved and stands for truth – Just like his music!

G E N I U S!!
After trying the best Bassists from all over Europe finaly they close the circul.
Db-Viruoso Guy Tuneh is what these hot lions need!!
After so many orchestras all over europe (like: BPO, BR and others……)
are running after Guy Tuneh and looking colaboration with him, I think that his “O.K” to this ensemble is a great Idea!
The Maestro knows way, he has aplan!!!
(once again an Idea that will create new landmark)
