Progressive Repertoire for the Double Bass - Volume 3 Volume 3 by George Vance Double Bass - Sheet Music
By George VanceIt is rare in music pedagogy that something truly revolutionary comes along. Progressive Repertoire is the first English language method for beginning Double Bass to incorporate the innovative division of the Bass fingerboard into six positions, developed by renowned French bassist François Rabbath in his three volume Nouvelle Technique de la Contrebasse. Mr. Vance has created a method that introduces these revolutionary ideas in a progressive manner using familiar folk and classical material to produce studies and pieces that will appeal to novice Basses of all ages. In addition, a Compact Disc is included with each of the primary books containing all the music performed by François Rabbath, with Elizabeth Azcona-Hartmark, piano.Progressive Repertoire for Double Bass will introduce American teachers and students to the most important techniques developed for the instrument.

George Vance has produced a new approach to the teaching of the double bass which has resulted in an excellent method for both the young and adult beginner and the advanced player. His design of introducing primarily the intervals of octaves, fifths and fourths is a logical step to ready the student for the smaller intervals which are not as easy to hear accurately. His system is a superb preparation for the aspiring student to pursue other methods of higher technique, such as that of Francois Rabbath.

This book is the gold standard for teaching a beginner to learn how to play bass. With this volume the student builds upon both earlier books. Using positions 1-3, and thumb positions 4-6 in music that spans the classical repertoire. Multi-movement works of baroque, classical, and romantic are all available to challenge the intermediate player. A whole palette of sounds, articulations, and ideas are mastered in this volume. It ends with a movement from the standard repertoire for bass- Eduoard Nanny (attributed to Dragonetti) Concerto . Thoughtful, thorough, and pushes the student to their maximum potential.
