An Introduction to Double Bass Playing (w/ color pictures)
"An Introduction to Double Bass Playing" is the culmination of over a decade of playing, teaching, studying, and practicing. It addresses many aspects of double bass playing and pedagogy including exercises, examples, and fingerings that teachers have used over the years but never written down. It's a great resource for teachers, students, education majors, music minors, parents and anyone interested in the double bass. It is a wonderful companion for studio classes and private lessons. The Double Bassist (now The Strad) says it is "...full of sound and useful advice." Click here or information about tax exempt purchases. Check out the companion website for more bass stuff and videos Also visit my site for educators.

  Suzuki Soup
Suzuki Soup is a composition I wrote featuring the melodies of Suzuki Book 1. It is a medley in a fiddling type style. I thought that since most string students study these tunes it would be fun to play them with a twist in a group setting. And since students do play them, the ensemble's intonation should be better as the melodies are already in their ears. You will receive a ZIP file with the parts and score. Copy the parts as needed!
