I've been spoiled by Rinat, I must say, but this is still a first class performance!

[@nunodionisio496]

This is simply beautiful, that cadenza... so many emotions going trough my head. Thank you for this interpretation, amazing!

[@LeoNovel]

This is my medicine! This is my therapy during these difficult times under lockdown! Thank you, Maestro! 🙇🏻‍♂️♥️

[@enzocypriani5055]

this is pure bliss! thank you!

[@azamoraar]

1st violin is having a blast

[@bozoparadzikcom]

Yes 😊 he must, as he is actually conducting

[@azamoraar]

@@bozoparadzikcom as my musicianship continues to grow along with me joining many ensembles, I’ve realized that it’s not just musicians being dramatic, it’s actually just a conducting technique. As a bassist I also do it 😭

[@domeralo8693]

Eccezionale, come performance, location, acustica e regia.

[@digoonazaro334]

Quando ouço essa música da vontade de chorar é muito linda essa peça principalmente a interpretação dela!

[@silvia57845]

užasný kontrabas, úžasná hra, páči sa mi veľmi Vaša hra a umenie, pán Božo..

Ďakujem Vám 🤗❤

This is the best recording of this piece that I heard until this time. Bravo!

[@NicoloEugelmi001]

Hey Božo, sounds great! (from an old viola friend at 1988 Jeunesses Musicales)

Wonderful

[@mariopavez4107]

Maravilloso, maestro Bozo.

[@bozoparadzikcom]

Muchas gracias, señor 🤗

[@matthewpolicelli1958]

Wonderful performance! I too use a German bow so it's good to see it performed with a German bow for once!

[@josuenahummendezdegante7622]

Todo un virtuoso !!!

[@marcelldenes-worowski394]

it is a pity that basicly the only orchestral matherial which can be found from this piece is from rudolf malaric, whom we can thank a lot in collecting almost the entire doublebass literature, but who could not resist in "rewriting" the orchestrations, instrumentations and often some parts of the pieces. this version has also rather less than more in common with the original orchestral version, which was written originally only for strings. however i admire the way you play the piece (luckily the double bass part is identical to the original one)! BRAVO!

[@bozoparadzikcom]

@Marcell Dénes-Worowski there is also orchestral material for string orchestra only (allegedly, it's original). This instrumentation here is made by myself, I have just used Malarić's intro. I didn't even know that Malarić's instrumentation exists

[@gregoryf4186]

I mean you could go look at the manuscripts, I’m lucky to have a teacher who took digital pictures of all of bottesini’s original manuscripts

[@alekseialekseevic3541]

Bravo!!!

[@adamlehmann6444]

I found the score for the solo double bass. Can anyone tell me how his bass is tuned?

[@bozoparadzikcom]

@Adam Lehmann AEBF#, as composed

[@cesar_sartori]

Bravo...bravo...bravo !!!!

[@aidanmonkey7055]

Hi Bozo I am performing this piece in the winter and I was wondering if you use specific fingerings from a specific edition of the concerto or these are your own fingerings

[@bozoparadzikcom]

Ooohh, sorry, I didn't see this question before 😳 I'm actually always using my own fingerings, also here.

[@xxslater9385]

This makes me wont to stay playing bass in my 8th grade orchestra even though it’s a lot being 1st chair

[@tysexy5482]

I was alone all through middle school it’s not that hard

[@SuperBen421]

hopefully you'll back at saying this and laugh at yourself. but keep playing bass

[@sirvlaudethebass7550]

Totally feel that! It can be really hard

[@ryanpham3308]

Any tips on this piece? I'm considering playing this song next May for a high school concert.

[@andreashoppe1969]

Your performance has put me to sleep at night, sadly an annoying mcdonalds commercial woke me up again after the video

[@draven7348]

pretty : )

[@tijanamitrovic9912]

wha strings do you mr.Bozo prefer for solo tuning

[@bozoparadzikcom]

@Tijana Mitrovic I wrote all details about my gear on my website

[@worldmusic4032]

Please, does anyone has the pds score of this concerto?

[@revan7bass]

you can find it in IMSLP

[@yasserannab1362]

Rinat played it wirh a 3 strings double bass what is the difference?

[@bozoparadzikcom]

Mainly, it is just an optical difference... the bottom string is kind of useless for the pieces by Bottesini, as he himself also didn't have it on his instrument

[@yasserannab1362]

@@bozoparadzikcom ahh i see now thank tou

[@borislu7100]

bozoparadzikcom do you feel the difference in tension between 3 and 4 string basses and if so how much is it?

[@xuanliu712]

Bravo...bravo...bravo。。

[@srdjanlisanin]

Osećajno !

[@RicardoSilva-px3tz]

Bravissimo! teria o pdf de sua partitura?

[@bozoparadzikcom]

Yes, I have enabled full orchestra material in the webshop long ago

[@irishrocker225]

bottesini played with a German. hmm interesting

[@gregoryf4186]

No he didn’t

[@sebastiansanchescontreras7837]

Better than rinat

[@JoanKSX]

Not necessary. Rinat Ibragimov's version is more emotional, sort of expressing suffering, while Prof. Božo Paradžik's version is more of majestical. Hmmmmm I wonder what's the original story of Giovanni Bottesini when he wrote this piece

[@gregoryf4186]

It’s just a different interpretation, not better or worse, it’s up to what you prefer, so for you this is better but for others it’s not
