Piano songs on bass?

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi!
I was just wondering if its possible to play a piano piece on a bass.
Like i meen everything on one bass. Even the left hand and right hand on the piano converted on ONE bass.
Do you think its possible to play all piano songs on bass?

ALL piano songs? I'm not so sure. I've seen some pieces a friend of mine played and, well, thats a lot of notes at the same time lol. Also, something that he arranged himself involves 1 piano, but 2 people playing it

Lots of piano music requires up to 10 notes played at once and even more requires many more notes to be sustained by use of the sustain pedal. This is obviously impossible on bass.
