I'm playing this song with my friend for fun in middle school and it's hard for us right now but this piece is extremely fun to play.

[@SteveAbrahall]

Fantastico, bravo!

[@AlamoCityCello]

Amazing the bass player can play that fast with a German bow hold. BRAVO!!

[@jordivilaband]

Fantástico !!!

[@Dogaradodia]

Zertifiziert intergalaktischen! Ein von einer Art Performance.

[@verttigoficial]

Bravo!

[@millerlite100]

dam his bass is bright asf

[@SuiteLew]

It's the solo strings

[@ngarber]

@@SuiteLew Not to mention the gratuitous changing of octaves.

[@jorgel2329]

Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏

[@lilmatty33059]

Hope you don't mind my transcribing a lot of this. I am going to be playing this on a chamber concert in the fall along with two other pieces that both require solo tuning so I'm glad to find that this works tuned a whole step down.

A very engaging and musical performance. I liked to upper octave development of the bass player. Want a lesson"

[@simonkawasaki4229]

Rossini’s inspiration from Mozart and Haydn is especially evident here.

[@franciscomena4834]

Beethoven pls

[@santicruz4012]

That bass sounds great! Thanks for a great performance, mister Furtok. What is the name of that small wooden table you are on? I m looking for one of those for my recitals :)

[@matthewmartinez3079]

Santi Cruz it’s called a resonance podium

[@wolfpental]

Santi Cruz: You can find shops by searching the name "Klangpodium"

[@reubenj.h.brewster3902]

I got a little bit emotional; I just love the bass so much!

[@l.michna1318]

Ein wundervolles Argument dafür, das der Kontrabass als Soloinstrument viel zu häufig vernachlässigt wird ....

[@siheonryudoublebass1959]

The best version!!!! Is it solo tuning?

[@noemiserra3366]

very virtousist

[@axelbengtsson8195]

Noice

[@axelbengtsson8195]

i mean "nice" but with a slight accent, not "noice" as in "noise"

[@davidzapata2987]

Playing this for a concert any tips on how to go to the higher octave

[@mark-stefaniw]

Study the score, and try jumping up the octave in critical places like Furtok.

[@counterphorce]

During silence why is someone almost always coughing?

[@annika4]

We as humans hate silence, and therefore we fill it with music. People with colds are impromptu percussionists who forgot to count their tacet bars and felt the need to play something anyway, and to do so at a time where absolutely everyone can hear it.

[@nab626]

The bassist cheats in the last movement

[@kotruf]

haha, of course :)

[@annika4]

We cheat as much as we can get away with

[@nab626]

@@annika4 You speak only for yourself. In music there is no mercy.
