60 Easy Classics for Double Bass: wonderful melodies by the world’s greatest composers arranged for beginner to intermediate double bass players

Exciting, familiar music by Beethoven, Handel, Purcell, Ravel, Verdi, Tchaikovsky, Bizet, Debussy, Saint-Saens and many more, arranged especially for double bass players of around Grade 1 to 5 standard, starting with the easiest (the pieces towards the end of the book are significantly more challenging) and adding to repertoire in our 50+ Greatest Classics for Double Bass. Play-along tracks are free to download from our website. The pieces give a taste of the music (not the entire banquet) and vary in length, the shortest are just three lines and the longest an entire page. Notes are quite large and easy to read. All are in easy keys. Fun to play, ideal for entertaining the family, also great for sight reading practice. Includes interesting musical facts, and musical glossary.
