Beschreibung
Two Etudes were commissioned by the 1st International Double Bass Competition
in Turkey in 2015. They are advanced, impressive and engaging works for
unaccompanied double bass which explore various facets of the solo
instrument. There are musical and technical challenges aplenty with the
opportunity to demonstrate a sound technical control and the ability to
explore the sonorous and cantabile qualities of the double bass. Composed as
test pieces, they utilise much of the range of the instrument and the
21st-century idiom demonstrates a composer with a complete understanding and
empathy with the double bass. '... Der knapp 30-jährige Özer ist dabei
strukturell, konzeptionell und was das sinnliche Erlebnis betrifft weiter als
manche Akustiktüftler in unseren Breiten.˙ Jörn Florian Fuchs (Wiener
