Eduard Tubin - Concerto for Double Bass and Orchestra. Analyzing the preparation as a small built double bass player
(2024) MUUM04 20241Malmö Academy of Music
- Abstract
- Concerto for Double Bass and Orchestra by Eduard Tubin is considered to be one of the most challenging pieces of the double bass repertoire as it is known to be a physically demanding work. It was written for double bass player Ludvig Juht who was a physically big built man and welcomed the technical challenges. This thesis aims to analyze these challenges of the piece for a player with smaller physical characteristics by proposing ways to improve technical difficulties while avoiding injuries. It concludes by stressing the importance of strengthening the muscles and stretching as well as adapting the double bass instrument to the player's needs.
