Hungarian Dance #5 for Double Bass and Piano 

Ethan Shelley UM WAS THAT IN NC CUS I THINK I SAW IT!!!!!

@@Jonathan_Kositsin Is it standard that this song not be played on the 1st finger position? Like how do people know to play it further up the string or on the next string?

I played this song in 7th grade in my school orchestra

MeepKid What instrument do you play?

@@papertoweldispenser9227 viola gang

Khiara Nalupa i play bass it doesnt hurt unless its on the E string

Considering the bandages on his fingers, he probably understands.

Cheyenne Brown the lowest string?

Rowan Jin lmaoooo

You ment r/holdmybeer ?

FemYeah r/hmrb (hold my root beer💀

Hold my vodka

FemYeah were on RU-vid not reddit.

It's not because I'm so good, it's because they're so bad!

Makes sense

Lev Weksler well it does kinda sound auto generated because it doesn’t ring like an actually instrument 😐

The PaintBucket at least the Piano does...

​@@thepaintbucket1231 I listen a computer too

I think he mentioned he uses special strings because most of the music he plays is geared toward the violin.

@@deejdeej9258 he does and has confirmed

Double bass is so hard

@@santiagobenitez1388 Lmao no he absolutely does not. Also autotune isn't magic, it can't fix shitty sounding original recordings

@@santiagobenitez1388 you should get your ears checked. He has live performances on his channel if you'd like to check. It's curious how you're apparently the only person picking up on this

ssaBssaB rehtorBBASS watch one of his life videos it's not fake just some weird post editing

Marvin Wonders he literally records the audio separately, edits it, and plays it over the video. This isn’t live or real per se

I am a Double Bass student too and that is insane. (I am hungarian too😂)

Lol

Thats sad

you need help my friend

I don't even play double bass, I play violin

Haha me neither

Says Clorox Bleach

Jesus Christ

Thank you Naiya

Charu S same here

ikr??? :D

Niti S same

Niti S Same! I am 11 am started playing the bass around 9 months ago.

Same!

Thank you Nelson. I don't play the violin but I mostly play violin music.

Much sooner than you think, if you'll be serious about.

Marie Camacho I'd say 5 years if you have a high quality bass, strings and training.

Lev Weksler how long have you been playing for? I'm in the Eighth grade, taking private lessons, and hope to go to Julliard school in New York City, which is extremely challenging to get into.

Marie Camacho Anyone can play it like this. I'm somehow getting there, the only issue is I can't produce the sound very well when I go up high on the fingerboard. D:

I think that it depends on how you train and how your teacher teaches you. I've had bass lessons for 8 years and still practise about 3 hours a day but the training never got me somewhere because my teacher hold me back. So the lessons got waisted. Now I follow lessons from someone else and there is really good process 🙃.

+Jose Fernando Marmolejo Alzate Thank you Jose. It isn't about the bow. I use high solo strings and high positions. Plus my own techniques and fingering.

+Lev Weksler Hello . I play the violin and you have inspired me to learn the double bass as well . I feel sad that quite a few number of people play this beautiful musical instrument . By the way can i know what is the red thing attached to the bridge of your double bass ?

Natasha, thanks a lot for your kind words. On the one hand, I am glad that I have inspired you learning to play the double bass, and on the other, I feel very responsible for your inspiration. Most bass players are combining their love for the bass with a practical benefit, i.e., good paying job in the orchestra (I am not against the art of orchestral performing), but my technique is designed for a solo playing (High solo tuning, extended fingerboard, personally developed technique). Of course, it is possible to combine both, but it would take extra efforts. The red thing attached to the bass is the tuner.

+Lev Weksler Oh you're welcome ! Thank you for replying ! I could watch you play all day

+Lev Weksler Your Czardas solo touched my heart and you made me learn how to play it in the violin ;-);-);-)

It's resonant

carl wheezer he records it before hand, and then plays alongside it for the sake of the video. but when recording the audio he did actually play the piece with a double bass

I think its just a bit of video delay and the microphone cutting out for a split second. The bass doesnt sound weird at all, it actually sounds like a high quality one. It's also evident hes been playing for decades (look at this his hand fingers they r flat cause of callouses and he has wondeful posture). I have played in an orchestra for 9 years, ur ears become tuned to pick up on that stuff pretty quickly. Edit: I just read a comment and his reply. He says he uses high solo strings and he had an extended finger board. High solo strings give it a different sound to reach certain notes. So I guess that's why it sounds weird to you guys, but it's nothing abnormal :)

@@dangerderpycake4791 yeah he is for sure very experienced, but that makes sense

Thank you so much 😊

Shifting on the bass is a nightmare as a cellist, shifting is semi easy up to being super high up, and a bass is double or triple length of a cello so shifting is a lot harder an more wonky.

@@Dylan_1344 I play bass and shifting isn’t that bad

Thank you Valeria!

Hiểu Hiểu fat one

No buddy, we bought them from the same store. The difference is that you forgot to take your bow out of the case.

@@levweksler1819 Lol! So true! You did an amazing job!

sameee
