Following on from First Bass, Jan Faulkner’s Second Bass is a collection of eight short, colourful, and engaging pieces for the progressing young bassist. Written… in a lively, enjoyable and accessible style, a number of keys and positions are explored, alongside different playing styles, to create colourful and inventive pieces. The piano accompaniments are simple and supportive, and the book offers fun and creative study and concert repertoire. Jan Faulkner was a member of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra for many years and was also a Specialist Percussion Teacher at Wells Cathedral School, alongside her appointment as Outreach Officer at the school. She composed music for almost every occasion, including many pieces for percussion, and has written two books [First Bass/Second Bass] for the young bassist.
