Bottesini, Duetto per Violoncello e Contrabasso 

Saludos desde Brasil! Bravissimo la orquestra especialmente los solistas por esta interpretacion majistral.

… himmlisch 💫 : zu 130 % aufeinander eingestimmt, energetisch verbunden und 1 zu 1 aufeinander abgestimmt 🌹. Was für ein erergetisch -aufbauendes Klangerlebnis in unserer heutig verwirrenden Zeit. Ein grosses DANKESCHÖN 🙏 an Euch beide: „Cello / Basissten“ 🎻 👍🪷 !!

Ethereal! Just so lovely and lilting. Thank you for your virtuosity!

Me encantó..Este video lo he visto como 15 veces ya!!!! Bravisimo!!!

Dos virtuosos deleitándonos...acompañados por una muestra del Sistema...maravilloso¡¡¡

Wonderful duet. My double bass started life as a 3 string, but this is the first time I've seen one played.

Magnifico, Que impresinante el Violon, realmente ¨SUPERB´, El violoncello tambien es bastante reconocible .... Estupendo ... Muchas Gracias

¡Emocionante Versión! Edicson y Patrick son sensacionales y consiguen hacernos disfrutar con su aparente facilidad pasmosa para la interpretación. ¡Enhorabuena, Maestros!

Geniale e sensibile Edicson Ruiz mostra tutta il suo virtuosismo diretto magistralmente da Christian Vasquez con la storica Simon Bolivar!

Sin comentarios, la verdad que son ejemplos a seguir, maestro soy su fans y aprendiz numero 1... Éxitos Maestro Edicson Ruiz y todo el Sistema!!! ;)

Who said it is intended to sound like cello? Its just a bass playing high frequencies. I think if it was supposed to sound like cello, Botesini would have written it for cello. The double bass has a fantastic range... It is only reasonable to make use of it. Playing high frequencies on the bass is not a minor way of achieving a cello sound, it has its expressive particularities.

I forgot how badass this was.

This was absolutely beautiful!! Esto es absolutamente bellísimo!!

Beautiful duet. ty. the ending was most touching. i kept smiling. lovely! ♡

Ediczon Ruiz siempre magnifico al contrabajo :)

really great! congratulations!

Wonderful ..... Bravi!!!!!

Bottesini played on a Three String: Gasparo Da Salo made Double Bass... Thus the three string is "period style". Congrats...

que complicidad es maravilloso

Noooo mano ... esto es para llorar. ¡Exquisito! ¡Bellísimo! Resulta que el contrabajo logra captar una profundidad de emoción que está fuera del alcance del violincelo. Fue muy astuto del compositor, Bottesini, combinar los dos instrumentos, se complementan. Pero, mano, escuchar el cantar de ese contrabajo es como tomar una sabrosísima copa de vino. ¡Bravo!

Bravo! Beautiful piece! Amazing playing :)

grandissimo! ... W IL CONTRABASSO :)

Bravi

increíble instrumento el violoncello!!!

Fantástico!

It is the way the double basses were in Bottesini's period, but you can play it perfectly on a 4-string bass ;)

Woooow x 1 millón !

Брависсимо!!!!!!

bellisimoooo :)

WOAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

The concerto for bassharmonics and cello.

BRAVI!!

YEP there is Bellini's "I Puritani" in the music.

Certified Intergalactic!

wooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anyone know why he removed the fourth string? Ruiz is a GREAT musician - so great that he could play a ONE-STRINGED BASS! But I'm just curious why the three-stringed bass...

Venezuela!

Que obra más bella 😱

fossils12 I'm pretty sure there's notes in the Dvorak cello contcerto (standard rep) that reach higher than the ones found in this piece.

The doublebass part seems to be really hard!...

You're totally welcome :)

Ah, well thank you, Javier! :)

amazing. simply amazing. I hope to have a partner to one day who can help me attempt to recreate a fraction of the sublime performance that you have

How do you call the boxes that Bases in orchestra stand on ? I know that they are not for elevation but for enhancing sound .

bravo

D E L U J O !

What the hell why does that big guitar only have 3 strings

alguien sabe donde puedo encontrar la partitura de esta obra?

Это же на темы Пуритан Беллини. Можно было бы и в названии указать.

!!!

Does anyone know the name of this piece?

someone knows where i can find the scores for the cello solo part?

Es todo un ejercicio acrobático tocar ese contrabajo (notece la ironía con-trabajo)

Why only a three stringed bass?

1337 , elite

contrabasso, Only 3 strings!?woow

because bass players can sound however they want, and if they want to sound like a cello, whom are you to tell them no?

Its more like a Celloconcerto with doublebass accompaignement

Where can I find this song's music sheet?

why do you give a crap what this angel does on his bass?

I read somewhere this work is rarely performed as the highest notes performed on both the cello & double bass is out of reach of most professionals!

Très bel instrument, la contrebasse, mais si on habite un appart au 12ème étage, alors là il faut prier le dieu des ascenseurs...

why do play double bass with the intention of trying to sound like a cello?

Come on! He's playing OFF of the fingerboard! Why use a contrabass or bass if you aren't going to play low? The cello part was so high that it literally could've been played on a violin in the same octave!
