Instrument: Double Bass

Whale violin😍😍

It’s not the lowest! The octobass is the lowest and biggest

started playing the double bass a few months ago. I enjoy the experience quite a bit, before i started playing the double bass, i played the violin for 3 years but i hated it, and now, i can truly say, i enjoy my instrument, this video was a great watch, it's the 3rd time i've come back to watch it, the first time when i watched it was my first week of double bass. So far it's been the best few months of my life, being surrounded by musicians that have the same interests as me is just truly amazing.

Get this guy a modeling/acting deal.

back in high school, i sprained my left shoulder from carrying my bass around lol

what size is this double bass?

Guys his E is way off😂

A bass is related to the guitar.

I found these videos about instruments and got addicted to them lol

a great presentation!

I'm a new double bass player (Still in middle school) and this helped me learn some more about my instrument, thank you!

I wonder why he's using a bow?

Lovely bass and the French German bow theory is correct but not a 3 string bass !!!

Now play wonderwall

Shaqs violin

lets goo I heat 1001 comments fore you

I play
bass

but there's hardly any pieces composed for this instrument if there were I'd prolly start learning it just doesn't strike me as a solo instrument. But i love it's dark tone registers that sound could be so useful it's beautiful and vibrates the body and soul almost

I've never even seen one in person nor am I a big fan of classical music, but I couldn't stop myself from watching the entire video. Very informative. Thanks!

What about octobass? Isn't that the biggest string instrument?

I play Chello and I thot that was big

What a well-spoken awesome presentation

Even you play octobass?!

Who is here form Thwok

Geeze people. So many pulling the Octobass outta their butts (but they don't play it) on this thread but it is not an orchestral instrument. There is no Octobass in ANY Symphony. Nothing more than a gimmick. Dragonetti is spinning in his grave and Bottesini is shaking his head.
Check out the last movement of Beethoven's 9th Symphony as there is a recitative for the Bassists that is wonderful. And for some killer Bass lines, check out any of the Richard Strauss tone poems.

Thank you for sharing, great content.
You should consider making a video/documentary on the Double Bass, maybe in multiple parts.

People say that the double bass is the biggest and lowest of the string instruments, which in most orchestras is primarily true, but does anyone appreciate the octobass??

Personally I came here to hear the deeper sounds of the Contrabass, not to hear it be played like a Cello.
Especially since I wonder how it can have such a massive sound in all the recordings I hear.

"Largest and lowest of all string instruments" the Octobasse has entered the chat.

"The double bass is the largest and the lowest of all the string instruments."
Octobass: "Am I a joke to you?"*

*It sounds like "thrptptptptptptprttptptp" when it's saying that.

Im going to learn this next year

I think it is because the music is actually an octave below, so double the bass.
