Description

Danse Caprice is in one extended movement and emphasises the lyrical, and cantabile qualities of the double bass throughout its solo register. The style is …late- romantic and accessible, probably written at the end of the 19th-century, with a strongly independent and supportive piano accompaniment. Černý’s music is always beautifully written for the double bass and the title echoes the dance-like style, in waltz time, with capricious energy and effervescence throughout. This edition includes accompaniments for both solo and orchestral tuning.
