Preferably classical but jazz would be good too, especially Mingus.
I would like to hear some amazing classical double bass pieces and jazz ones too. I feel most fundamental music is written for double bass thats why I want to hear more of it.
Any Bottesini? Dragonetti? or any pieces?

Try youtubing your favorite bassist, or start with Gary Karr, or Borguslaw furtok and then go crazy with the related videos. Theres also an awesome Gary Karr video on Jason Heaths bass blog www.doublebassblog.org |

You don't want to miss some fine playing by relatively non-famous players. Even a couple of good students, not to mention the really laughable atrocious crap that can also be informative. Not to mention "other": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GL7SskX13U

By the way, I'm not a double bass player, I play electric, but my main instrument is violin so I've been around good double bass players quite a bit

What are some of the most acclaimed double bass pieces and performance?
