Double bass excerpt from Pictures at an Exhibition by Mussorgsky/Ravel 

Thanks, Alex! You're welcome. Ravel was an ingenious orchestrator!

Thanks so much, Kurt!!

Excellent!

Thanks again!

@@JeremyMcCoydoublebassist You are most welcome Sir, thank you so much for sharing your Treasure with us, please take good care!

Thank you! I can't settle on a best fingering for that spot but thumb can work well.

Thank you very much, Betty!

Thanks for listening! Cheers!

Thank you! 😊

Thank you, Deepak!

I don't often use thumb like this but it's a good solution in this excerpt. You can increase rotation by opening beyond strict left hand form. This may work more easily on bass since the spacing between tones is considerably longer than on cello.

Schmuyle. Inspired orchestration but it must be very difficult for the solo trumpet!

Very good sound!!

I can't say exactly but many, many boxes of Fruit Loops. :)

Glad you liked it - thank you!
