Description
The double bass and electric bass, although not originally particularly developed instruments in traditional music (apart from certain very specific styles), are increasingly being used to support the groove in contemporary folk projects or in so-called world music accompaniment in general.
Through this course, we will address the different essential aspects and role of the double bass and electric bass in traditional and "world" music and we will see how to personalize our approach while respecting the role or function expected for ideal accompaniment.
Topics covered include
- Basic and advanced techniques
- Harmony
- Rhythms and rhythmics
- Groove development
- Work on a repertoire (melodies, harmony, rhythm and accompaniment)
This course is aimed at double bassists and bass players, but also instruments whose objective is to work on accompaniment and develop bass lines.
Required level
Basic knowledge of the instrument: major and minor scales in the most common keys.
Equipment required
Bring your own instrument, a small amp for electric instruments, a music stand and something to write with
