So much life and energy in your playing!❤

Amazing

Que sonzao VC tira deste contrabaixo...excelente

Beautifully done Lorraine!

Great performance. On a side note: I've never seen any advantage in playing the bass standing up. The instrument is constantly swaying left and right, one's back has to arch over it, and when the left hand has to go up high, it is even worse... It is like trying to walk up a mountain standing on your hands. The bar stool gets rid of all that - no tension in one's back and shoulders and one's arms are free.

Bass goddess

Bass queen

Simply fantastic

I'm always blown away by Phoebe's power and control with the bow. Such a strong punchy sound with seemingly no effort

Absolutely lovely 👍

She is able to make me cry.

This must sound so amazing in person.

Tout ceci (la musique, la musicienne -- tout ceci, dis-je) est absolument magnifique.

Nice! Who made your bass? Great sound!

Love it!

Excellent and informative. I have always used less bow when I want clean and articulate playing, plus using less bow on long tones brings out more growl which I like.

Big bass !

Pero y la digitacion

We hear the echo before we hear the instrument...all you guys do this..rethink ur approach and consider post processing for better product

Bravo ! I discover an unknown composition by Dragonnetti. Due to the use of a particularly slightly higher orchestral register, I know that it is more difficult to delight a wide audience with a lower sound than Bottessini's tenor version. I listened with great interest and was impressed by the beautiful, musical interpretation, with the sweet sound of the baritone double bass. Thanks ! (My KZfaq double bass channel : Zbig Borowicz)

Wow, it looks so effortless 😮 and the sound is so well balanced, just beautiful! I envy you 😅

Me again...its just some pieces sound better when I use the German bow but some sound better with the French bow surely I'm meant to choose a direction, like with all the different schools for fingering options (Simandl, Brile etc) I feel like a bit of a 'Jack of all trades , master of none' sort of thing...

Oh, GOD please help me I am a German bow player and have come to terms with this situation. But recently I needed to get it rehaired and I was left with the French bow that came with my Double Bass . I have not been able to get "master/control" the French Bow , but as you mentioned in your tutorial ' you play with what you have .' So I picked up my French bow ,apologized to all in advance and started my warm up routine. I now have a little ottoman next to me when I practice and on it lays my French and German Bows... When I'm playing with the German bow I ache for my French bow and when I'm playing with the French bow and all is right with the world. And when the awful wrist pain starts setting in I put my French bow down and pich up my German bow and just carry on playing.. My question to you Sir is.....Surely you are meant to pick a style and try to master it ? If I'm switching between bows is it because I'm not sure of myself and that awful crippling self doubt is showing it's ugly face again ? I would welcome any advice thank you. Cheers Gavin... P.S As I have already mentioned that you said in your tutorial " you play with what you have." I am a 6.2 tall man and I play on a 1/4 size Double Bass??? In South Africa the selection of available Double Basses is rather small and what is available is very very expensive . That being said I know it's the wrong size by far BUT I love it and have adapted too it's dainty little fingerboard and believe me I have to play with a very heavy practice mute due to death threats from my neighbors....

Is this transposed to D?

Thank you so much I really appreciate.i learn alot

Watch, listen , and learn from a true master of his craft

8:09 - 8:36 thank you for the best twenty five seconds of my life

Brava. Mi dispiace ma gli archi per la classica sono sempre il meglio. Na questo pezzo esce benissimo anche sul basso. Come la cover di patitucci

Ganz großartig! ❤

Is the piano in orchestral or solo tuning?

What's the bow hold called? This is my first time seeing this kind of bow holding on a French bass bow =O

I just came by for a refresher after 15 years and I'm blown away

Great tutorial! Every bassplayer, student or pro, should watch this! It will improve your physical relation with your instrument and thus also your sound. THANKS!

Nice presentation!

Thank you for making these videos available. I had the pleasure to meet Dan in a recorded conversation about Bass & Sound here. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hMCJdqursKnDgqc.htmlsi=ULSqoYc2znn4iFkJ

Very interesting video

How can Mr Cobb be more relaxed than me while I sleep

A simple, beautiful elegance to this piece, and wonderfully played. I'll have to learn it

El contrabajo es un instrumento que a menudo no recibe la atención que merece en el repertorio clásico, pero Hoock demuestra con su interpretación que puede ser tan expresivo y virtuoso como cualquier otro instrumento solista.

Hi Cathy, we have religiously bought all your graded books but are desperate for a grade 6 copy - will that be coming? The others have been superb!!! Yours hopefully Rebecca and 13 year old Josh

What a breathtaking voyage of incandescent colors!
