A beautiful piece by Bottesini.
The Double Bass with Zoe Johnson / Day 3.
Concerto for Double Bass in B Minor by Giovanni Bottesini
Though all these bass solos are quite beautiful, I feel obligated to include how solo bass can function in an orchestra. Bass solos are rare in an orchestral setting (I bet the only bass solo you can think of is L’Elephant, admit it) and bass has only been treated seriously as a solo instrument in the past couple centuries or so. The reason for this is simply because it’s difficult to write melodies in a lower register - they don’t stick out quite as clearly as a violin’s shrill song might. Despite this, it’s still possible to write lower-register melodies that work with the music and are distinctive from accompaniment - and Bottesini’s Concerto for Double Bass in B Minor shows how this isn’t only possible, but a beautiful thing. Rinat Ibragimov’s performance here is my personal favorite recording of the piece, and though he plays it with piano accompaniment, there are many recordings of the piece performed with an orchestra that work just as beautifully.
