doublebass@tiscali.co.uk Bassist and composer Simon Garcia was born in
Mugardos (Spain) in 1977 and graduated in double bass from the Conservatorio
Superior of Salamanca. He has worked as a double bassist in the Royal
Orchestra of Galicia, having also performed in many orchestras throughout
Spain, and is the bassist in the Symphony Wind Orchestra of A. Coruna. He has
collaborated with many musicians and ensembles, particularly in the field of
contemporary music, and has recorded and performed on many commercial
recordings and for television and radio broadcasts. Simon Garcia has
composed more than thirty works for double bass, ranging from two to six
players, alongside transcriptions of these pieces for various chamber
ensembles. His music has been performed in Mexico, Venezuela, Uruguay,
Denmark, Spain, Japan, Italy, Austria, Germany, Canada, USA and UK by The
Bass Gang, Bass Instinct and Il Quint-etto amongst others, and some of his
music was used as teaching material in the 2011 ISB Year of Collaborative
Music. Simon Garcia's music is lively, jazzy and rhythmic with great forward
momentum and drive. Accessible for players and audiences alike, he writes
colourful music of distinction and energy, employing the entire range of the
double bass.
