Multiplicity
"Multiplicity" is a unique compilation of double bass ensembles in which I have recorded all the tracks separately, so on the recording the ensembles you hear are all performed by me. Being very interested in chamber music and because to the best of my knowledge this has never been done, I thought it would be interesting to put out a CD of double bass ensembles recorded by one player.
The CD consists of a variety of double bass ensembles from duets to ensembles with as many as 13 tracks. Some of the pieces were originally written for double bass, and others such as Barber’s Adagio for Strings and Villa-Lobos’ "Aria" from Bachianas Brasileiras No. 5 were transcriptions. The piece Notes from Uncommon Ascent was written for me by Connecticut Composer Tom Schuttenhelm specifically for this project.
