Landscape Sketches

Improvised solo double bass. Possibly an idea for a solo double bass piece!

Unfortunately still suffering back pain...

Very refreshing.  So is this solo bass?  If so, some of the chordal work and string interplay is effective.

I know from playing cello that kind of dynamics control takes incredible skill & effort (not that I ever achieved it)! Amazing job.

Very sorry to hear about the back pain--best wishes for feeling better!

I like the changing tonality as you bow--that works really well.  I'd like to hear more.

well done! really like the timbre you pulled out from the strings

very very nice expression, stunning skills!

awesome.

Phillip Glass would be proud. wink
Nicely done man.

This is indeed solo, all on D/G strings.
