Description

Valse-Caprice is a lyrical, engaging and accessible work for the intermediate double bass duo. Composed in 2006 and premiered at Wells Cathedral School, there are few technical challenges for either player alongside a colourful and supportive piano accompaniment which complements the lyrical and flowing solo lines. This edition includes two versions of the piece:
Intermediate – Bass 1 ventures into thumb position, otherwise it remains in bass clef throughout, and is both player and audience friendly.
Advanced – this makes more use of the solo register for Bass 1, with Bass 2 exploring the rich and sonorous middle register in music which would be suitable for any audience or occasion.
