I played this when I was younger. Reviewing and relearning this will further my recovery from a stroke. Thank you for your always welcome and useful offerings.
I guess im a bit of a show off, so I like the international version more with the added (or rather not removed) chords and the fast arpeggio at the end. But i do like the optional slurs and trills, really lets you tailor the piece more if youre new to playing in a more improvisational baroque style. I dig it.
A beautiful piece, and on a truly beautiful instrument. I'm not a double bass player myself. But I so wish I could be. Double bass caught my attention a while back, out of literally nowhere really. Though I never would have guessed the instrument that would one day truly call to me would be one so absolutely massive, heavy, and sadly so impractical. Ha, we just never know. Maybe chance will find a way, and it will make complete sense to learn to play. meanwhile I'll continue to listen to such wonderful music from you and others in the double bass community. And it's so cool to see growing interest in this still, in my opinion, so overlooked amazing instrument.
You make those Perpetuals sound really nice. I just ordered a set after your video on them. Also thanks for interviewing my classical teacher Dr. Barket!
That’s great to hear! I’ve been digging the Perpetuals, and they’ve even settled in a bit more since filming this video. I’m looking forward to trying them out on a gig sometime soon. Great to hear that you’re studying with James Barket-he’s awesome!
@@doublebasshq yeah he is! I study with him and Marc Miller (jazz bass) at KSU. I’m doing a jazz performance degree after being a professional tuba player for 20 years. (I’m actually an Eastman artist, I’d love to talk to you at some point about their basses). Keep us updated about those strings too!
The International is a good edition as well-that’s how I learned it. It’s cool to see the differences between this more recent one and to note the differences in some of the pitches, markings, etc!
Nice!, I will definitely add some of these "decorations" to the version I know! I'm currently working on this piece (1st and 2nd movement) for the Texas all-state solo competition. I'm just struggling a little bit with these parts: 3:10 & 3:35. Any fingerings ideas?
For the 3:10 area, I keep it in the neck block region, starting on 1 for the C# and then crossing over to the D string. For the 3:35 part, I do the 16ths on the G string and then cross over to the D string on the Bb, and then I stay in the neck block area. I hope that makes sense-thanks for watching!
Jason - Beautiful, expressive playing. Bravo to you!
Thanks!
I am learning this piece on cello as an adult learner, and your video is great 😊 thank you!
That's great to hear--thanks!

You bet - - thanks for checking this out! Best wishes on the recovery.
Great news! I’m currently teaching this piece to one of my students.
Nice! It’s a classic for sure-I always enjoy getting back into this one.
Haha I’m a student learning it right now!

Wonderful playing Jason!
Thanks, Elsen!
Excellent. My former teacher Pierre Hellouin made the same job long time ago with a very nice harspichord part in A. Editions Leduc, Paris
1978
Nice!
Lovely, I just started on the first movement and have got that one down pretty good. Not sure if I should dive into the second just yet...

I'm currently learning the classic international edition, but maybe I'll switch over to this version 🤔

Woooo! Thanks!

@@doublebasshq Thank you!
Is the harpsichord backingtrack also available?
I can send it to you if you like! It’s just MIDI harpsichord from my DAW.
