The Transcriptions Series series
Recital Music publish a wealth of original works for double bass alongside a popular, accessible and growing range of transcriptions for bassists of all ages and abilities. Most transcriptions published by Recital Music are by David Heyes, who has a successful and proven track record when arranging for double bass.
A Baroque 'classic' arranged for double bass quartet by David Heyes. Editions in D major and G major are published together, and this is an excellent exercise in ensemble playing. Great fun for all - audience and players alike. Bass 4 plays the repetitive ground bass but, with a little judicious editing, this can be equally shared between the four basses.
Useful repertoire for players of equal ability and excellent transcription repertoire for any good bass quartet. The musical notation has been changed (no demi-semiquavers/16th notes) for ease of reading.
Performance Level: 6;8
