'Polar Lights is a fascinating miniature...' [Rob Nairn, ISB Journal]
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.
