In today's double bass lesson, Christine Hoock shares some tips on this integral part of bass playing, and how you can make sure that you are warming up effectively with good technique.

"....A bad sound is always boring for your ears. DON'T KILL YOUR EARS" I like that expression !!

[@a.s.vanhoose1545]

She's right that confidence is critical for intonation.

[@shawnmarko7131]

Thank you for your teaching. People are out here watching your marvelous bow-hold. I have been playing the German bow and recently freed the thumb following Mr. Streicher's book. There is a profound difference and I'm better understanding the role each finger now has.

It is -somehow- wonderful to have almost all fundamental issues covered perfectly and logic in 15 minutes. Right to the point without any bullshit. (that you can find on youtube easily) I really love the frank and honest mode. I wish I could be your pupil.... :) Keep up the series, please! Bravo!!!!

Thank you for this very generous, free insight into your routine. I am a player as well, and have long struggled with finding the right warm up. This a splendid video, and i am now a fan. I had seen your photo around friends lists of people i know on Facebook, but someone posted a video of you playing Dittersdorf, and then i found this video on warming up. So generous..thank you very much!!

A differenza di molti uomini lei e ' molto intonata !!! Brava !!! E questione di studio e di applicazione ! Il contrabbasso o si suona perfettamente o a parere mio e ' meglio non suonarlo ! ( qui però qualche stecca c'è ) .....😊
