Adagio Melancolico ed Appassionato is a beautifully lyrical and expressive piece which explores and exploits the lyrical and sonorous qualities of the double bass. Played …primarily in the solo register, this is ideal for the advanced bassist and would fit easily into any recital and for any audience or occasion. The accompaniment is colourful and supportive enabling the bassist to create wonderfully shaped phrases and emotions throughout its solo register. The edition includes two double bass parts, with the original bowings by Bottesini and a newly edited one by David Heyes, alongside piano accompaniments for both solo and orchestral tuning.
