Once again, Futok gives an amazing performance. Having heard so many other performances, I can honestly say this one has the finest double-bass playing. The first two strings are tuned up one whole step. There used to be an edition by Stuart Sankey written for this tuning. It does not appear to be available any more. You can see/hear the disasters when this piece is performed on the modern bass with the usual tuning.
That's NO BASS! The Aria was written for the original Sarastro of Zauberflöte. This man's not got that voice, but is a pleasant enough baritone. Furtok is fabulous!
Virtuoso singer & double bassist, bravo!!! Watching from Manila
Der Boguslaw ist ein wunderbarer Musiker! Die anderen Kollegen sind natürlich ebenfalls ausgezeichenet! Bravo.

Boguslav Furtok ist ein grandioser Künstler!
Bravissimo!!!
furtok is really rockin. great job
Certifié intergalactique ! 🌹
bravissimo
@SoebbingStudio I'd have to say the original sounds magnificent the way it is... and the guy can clearly hit the notes
@bassivus i think it,s only the the G string tuned up in order to leave the open D.
Welches Orchester ist das? Und wer ist der Bariton?
Bravi !
Interesting solution to use solo tuning. At least upper two strings. Its not all tuned in standard solo tuning, or is it?
anyone know who the bass is? fabulous voice
Et les notes graves écrites par Mozart pour la voix de basse où sont-elles ?
Anch'io non ho sentito le note basse!!
Zertifiziert intergalaktischen!

Very true. He didnt sing the low notes indicated?!?! But I mean you do what you have to
Lovely! But who is the singer?
Rechte hand....Wahr gebrochen???Fingersetze sind eine komödie.
He's a baritone singer, not bass baritone for sure. The deep notes are too weak.
He doesn't even get his name mentioned....?
