I am 81 years old and began learning bass in 1952. I agree with everything Božo Paradžik has said. Young bass players are better taught and develop much more quickly than when I was young. It is very exciting and hopeful to see & hear so many excellent young bassists today. RU-vid and the internet has made it possible for quickly sharing information and (like Božo Paradžik has said) progress is much faster today.
Thanks so much for posting these, especially with the English translations! This is a great resource for bassists, and hopefully more people will find out about Bozo through this documentary. He's a superb musician.
What is the name of the first composition if I may ask? Bottesini I guess, as it says in the description… but what composition? It sounds really beautiful and I think I have heard it already before but can't remember the name. Simply beautiful. And Mr. Paradzik is really a great player!
Come off it, pal-! your message had the ' I know better attitude'.The bit you don't quite understand,-Those in auditions get "nerves", they very much want the 'Job'& high marks,& that creates inward stress,which can impair performance. One must be fit for virtuoso Bass,& yet there is mental stress/strain to deal with. I've played Worldwide in Cabaret & Concert,Tv,Films,&records with World Class Stars,and when the dots turn up,only 5mins before curtain-up, stress takes some handling,I know it !!
Duncan Mctier, the englishman seems to know German better than English. One gets the impression from this video that everybody, regardless of his/her nationality knows German.
