Carl Fischer Progressive Repertoire for the Double Bass, Volume 3 - Vance - Piano Accompaniment - Book

Author: George Vance
Format: Book
Instrumentation: Piano Accompaniment

It is rare in music pedagogy that something truly revolutionary comes along. Progressive Repertoire is the first English language method for beginning Double Bass to incorporate the innovative division of the Bass fingerboard into six positions, developed by renowned French bassist Francois Rabbath in his three volume Nouvelle Technique de la Contrebasse. Mr. Vance has created a method that introduces these revolutionary ideas in a progressive manner using familiar folk and classical material to produce studies and pieces that will appeal to novice Bassists of all ages. In addition, downloadable audio performed by Francois Rabbath is included with each of the primary books, with Elizabeth Azcona-Hartmark, piano. Progressive Repertoire for the Double Bass will introduce American teachers and students to the most important techniques developed for the instrument.
