Suite ‘In Bohemia’ includes five short, colourful and accessible miniatures for the intermediate bassist, exploring the lyrical and cantabile qualities of the double bass. Primarily in bass clef and low thumb position, each features musical and technical challenges in equal measure and are ideal for both study and recital use.The piano accompaniments are simple and supportive, creating open textures for the solo double bass, with a limited number of key and time signatures to create variety and contrast.The pieces can be performed singly or as a suite, and in any order. Suite ‘In Bohemia’ is available for both solo and orchestral tunings.
