There have never been many compositions written for solo double bass. There probably never will be. But, as anyone who has heard bassist Edgar Meyer performing the Bach cello suites can attest, there's a lot that can be done with the instrument. On Tarantella, we get a fascinating collection of more than a dozen 19th- and 20th-century miniatures arranged or written for double bass. Performed gorgeously by British double bassist Duncan McTier, joined by pianist Kathron Sturrock, the music made during this recital will dramatically change your perception about the double bass. From the flowing grace McTier injects into his arrangement of Kreisler's Liebesleid to his spirited bow attack on Reinhold Gliere's Tarantella Opus 9 No. 2, the technique is faultless. The bass sounds perfectly suited to these bonbons, and the recorded sound is excellent. Between the pretty music and the accomplished playing, this creative disc really is a knockout. --Jason VerlindeCustomer Reviews:

Bravissimo!.......2003-03-11
His choice of pieces is also interesting, including Rossini's "Une Larme pour Basse" - a simple and understated piece overlooked by virtuosos in search of fast and/or high register playing. Unless you're looking for a disc with McTier's take on the most popular virtuoso showpieces, you will not be disappointed with this. It's a well thought out and executed program of well and lesser known works.
Great CD.......2002-10-25

Perhaps I should start by admitting a bias: Many years ago, lying on Boston's grassy Esplanade by the Charles River on warm summer nights, I learned what a symphony orchestra should sound like, with Arthur Fiedler conducting the Boston Pops Orchestra. Those concerts were free; these seven compact discs are not--not quite. But for any lover of light classical music, they are certainly one of the best buys available. The orchestra (essentially the Boston Symphony) is one of the world's greatest; the music, from Smoke Gets in Your Eyes to the Goyescas Intermezzo and Ride of the Valkyries is instantly enjoyable and permanently valuable; the conductor is at the same time genial and exacting, convinced that any music you play, no matter how frivolous, deserves the best you can give it. --Joe McLellanCustomer Reviews:
