    Double Bass Andres Martin concerto

    Double Bass "Bass Range" Concertos

    Does anyone know of any concertos that focus more on lower range? I'm looking for something that would really show off the power and depth that is unique to the bass, rather than showing off a range that would be more comfortable for another instrument. Thanks
