Beschreibung
Duo Basso VI was composed in 2008 but only received it's premiere on Friday 6
September 2019 at Wells & Mendip Museum (Wells, Somerset) by Alexander
Heather (double bass) and David Heyes (double bass) In two contrasting and
extended movements, combining jazz and contemporary styles, the piece is a
great addition to the bass duet repertoire and offers musical and technical
challenges aplenty for both players. The composer explores a wealth of
colours, textures and timbres, with the lyrical potential of the double bass
always to the fore, and each movement would stand well as a separate recital
work. The music is always interesting and evocative, with great rhythmic
interest and momentum, primarily with a pizzicato accompaniment from bass 2,
as bass 1 explores the potential of the upper register and an effective use
of harmonics to add height and contrast. Two playing scores are included.
