[@mason11198]

[@nathanrock9269]

I agree!

[@edgarmarin-duartr9761]

I play bass and my friend and I are planning to this for our high school concert, he is a Cellist, im going in as a freshman he is a sophomore, I would really appreciate if the bass who is playing Cello no.2 can help out on this piece

[@jackhanan2872]

Who are these musicians. I don't see it listed.

[@mason11198]

Left side Joseph Conyers, right side Hal Robinson, everyone else, don't worry about it lol

[@alexmurphy5417]

Some things just sound better on the original instruments the piece was intended for.

[@misterxenon5068]

Agreed, this is an amazing performance but I'd rather listen to it performed with the cello as the star.

[@mason11198]

I personally prefer the timbre of high bass, much more rich, however, I understand people who disagree

[@paulandrew5791]

I’m bass-biased, though I also enjoy the cello very much

[@matthewv789]

It depends. It’s definitely hard to pull off on the double bass, but it can be done. I love Joseph and Hal, but honestly the higher register intonation in this one is… a bit iffy, which is pretty normal for 99.9% of even very good bassists and part of what I expect you’re objecting to. But it is possible to do better. The best example for me is Mikyung Sung, for instance playing Kol Nidrei, Meditation from Thais, Salut d’Amour, The Swan, Moses Fantasy, Czardas (from 2018), Liebeslied, Arpeggione sonata, Franck Violin Sonata, cello sonatas by Mendelssohn and Rachmaninoff, or, perhaps most comparable to this performance, her quartet’s versions of Spring from the Four Seasons and Bach’s Air on the G string. Even Hal has a really beautiful quartet playing an arrangement of Urlucht which is fantastic, posted on the channels of Sharif Ibrahim and Jacob Warren. It sounds quite a bit better than this particular video IMO.
