I know I’ve been putting out a lot of videos recently, but this one really must be seen. I think it speaks for itself:
Double bassist Leon Bosch (we’ve featured him several times in the past on Contrabass Conversations) performs the Serenata from Suite Andaluza by Pedro Valls with pianist Sung-Suk Kang in the following video:
Bassist Bobby Sleeper sent me a link to this great arrangement of the Bach Badinerie from the Orchestral Suite No. 2, played masterfully by Cristian Braica and accompanied by Boguslaw Furtok (featured many times on the blog in the past) as virtual orchestra....
Prelude from Cello Suite No. 1 (check out the room that he’s playing in!):
Bassist Matt Ides sent me a link to one of my all-time favorite bass tunes. I remember listening to this over and over while in high school. Matt had the same experience as well. I figured that this was on YouTube somewhere. Enjoy–it’s awesome!
