    Wouldn't "negative slope" make the bass unplayable with the bow?

    The Bach was phrased around his shifts rather than the musical line…something I have found to be very common when listening to double bassists play Bach..

    @embodiedconducting 5 днів тому

    I've taught this concept for many years. I instruct students to rest fingers that are not actively engaged with stopping the string. This practice teaches them to stay close to the strings rather then flying away from them. More importantly, it teaches them to find recuperation time while they are playing.

    Always love his videos....thats why I bought his German Bow course from years ago. ***Is that one of those Bernard Walke Bows that David is playing? Interesting that he has some kind of black rubber wrap type thing just off the screw part - above frog. Wonder if that eases some pressure on the hand. Never seen that.
