Failing - a very difficult piece for double bass

November 6, 2005 at 6:21 AM

If you need 5 or 10 minutes break from the daily stress of life and want some comic relief, this piece is very awesome!

I was going through some old recordings and I came across this and thought you all might get a laugh out of it.

Just a small edit - It's snowing outside right now! The smell is great, the look and sound is great, and you can hear our neighbors out on their back deck (which is already strung with Christmas lights) singing "Winter Wonderland."

I'm listening to your blog and thinking with a little bit of jelousy that Bass players and cello players can talk so easily while playing.
If I chattered so, I would surely drop my violin and sooner yet if I was a violist.
Bass players always were natural standup comedians.
