I'm working on learning an entire J.S. Bach Suite for solo Cello, on the Bass. It's pretty standard DMA material, especially for auditions. The catch is that I have... a complicated relationship with the suites, and played as little of them as possible throughout my postsecondary education. In light of this, I've been considering writing articles as I learn each movement - what I did, problems, how I approached it, what I had to change to get it to work on the bass, etc. Could be fun?
As a cellist that has had (and continues to have) major struggles with those suites, I think it's super cool to hear them on bass. It kind of hurts my brain to think about all the shifting that you'd have to do to get all them notes. Also, that's an awesome idea to write articles like that - might be really helpful to have it all written out like that to look at when you go to tackle the next one!
much applause for doing that stuff on bass. I can't even imagine the fingerwork Seriously, I can't imagine it. I play piano.
