About
Bass Clef Quartets Book 3 brings together an inventive and diverse collection of pieces spanning over four centuries of music. There are easy and accessible musical and technical challenges in the orchestral register of the double bass, remaining in bass clef throughout, with the addition of pizzicato and simple harmonics to create clarity and open textures. Some of the shorter pieces can be repeated, with the addition of dynamic contrasts, and the pieces are ideal for study purposes or as recital repertoire. The edition includes a score and four separate parts
