The Emerald Falcon, by Richard Meyer - Score & Sound

[@joeyplaysbass]

One of my first ever solos as a bassist in high school. The solo violinist was a great friend too. I couldn't have asked for more

[@pogcast_]

I LOVE RICHARD MEYER FOR GIVING THE BASSISTS SOME GODAMN RESPECT

[@minefan7]

This is by far my favorite Richard Meyer piece Well actually Incantations is a close second EDIT: it has been surpassed by Incantations and Subterranean Dialogues (yes that one random Richard Meyer piece you saw on this channel’s homepage 10 months ago)

OMG THROWBACK TO FRESHMEN YEAR WHEN I PLAYED THIS LOL

Oh my lord. That's impossible to play as a sixth grader. My 8th grade class who are from a school that is known for having an exceptional orchestra could barely play this.

its just an eb chord with registral contrast its not that hard

@@SuperSillyDamDam Wait until he realizes that isn't what I said 😢

[@SuperSillyDamDam]

@@samsv289 I’m just saying the tone u used makes it seem like it’s not an interesting chord or at least remotely nice sounding 😅 I personally believe that as an orchestra player or any instrument player you can only get so far without having an emotional depth to music like this person seems to have. Music is emotional and the way you put it you almost make it seem like a chore

The solo takes away 1/4 of my first violins in my orchestra. We literally are A chamber orchestra, and I don’t mean level wise.
