composed music for bass

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi Adam,

I'm wondering if you know of any published contemporary music (not transcribed from music for other instruments) for bass guitar solo or with piano. I have the Patitucci 60 Melodic Etudes, but have yet to find much else, and haven't found anything specifically for 6 string. It sure does seem that our instrument could benefit from getting some concert music written! Any leads greatly appreciated.

Try bassbooks.com. You can probably find something there.

Thanks. The Bruce Gertz "22 Melodic Studies" looks interesting. I'm mainly looking for extended pieces for a contemporary classical context, but any through-composed music is helpful.

i think steelpulz had a great suggestion. that's a great site! unfortunately i'm not to up-to-date with the latest available contemporary classical stuff. the closest stuff to that i currently own are a couple of bach cello suite books and some simandl etude studies.

Get the Dotzauer Cello books. These are are great for 5 & 6-string bass.

Best- Joe
