    Gary Karr shares an exercise for developing vibrato on double bass.
    Gary Karr, acclaimed as "the world's leading solo bassist" (Time Magazine), is, in fact, the first solo doublebassist in history to make that pursuit a full-time career. It is a career that adds new lustre to his already lustrous 1611 Amati doublebass which was given to him by the widow of Serge Koussevitzky.
    Since his debut with Leonard Bernstein and the New York Philharmonic in 1962, Karr has performed as soloist on six continents with orchestras, including the Chicago Symphony, London Philharmonic Orchestra, Hong Kong Philharmonic, Montreal Symphony, Simon Bolivar Orchestra (Caracas, Venezuela), Jerusalem Symphony, Oslo Philharmonic, Zurich Chamber Orchestra, and with all the major orchestras of Australia.
    On Italian cable, three Karr doublebass recitals reached 20 million classical music lovers. The numerous CDs that Gary Karr has recorded and released in Japan are "top of the recording charts" favorites in the Far East. The BBC has featured two video films of Karr, one an illumination of his life and music (Amazing Bass) and one a series for children. On his third recording with the London Symphony Orchestra, Karr performed the Concerto for Bass by John Downey. CBS Sunday Morning celebrated Gary Karr's career and the University of Wisconsin has released a video demonstrating his instructional approach to the doublebass (BASSically Karr) in addition to a special video concert for children (Karrtunes).

    Does Mr. Karr's bass neck seem a little taller than most basses, or is it a higher elevation of the end pin?

    • @eviethorne2511
      @eviethorne2511 5 лет назад +3

      I think it's an optical illusion due to the extreme slope of the shoulders on this bass. If you look to where the neck meets the shoulders, it is much higher than where the actual slope of the shoulders begin

      A lot of guys who play in thumb position a lot keep their endpin up higher. You can see that the nut of his bass is several inches above his head, which is high if you are playing in an orchestra but pretty normal if you are playing a lot of solos in thumb position. This puts less strain on your back because you don't need to lean forward so much for the high notes.

      I believe that he is playing a full size 4/4 bass over a 3/4. I saw him play such an instrument when he came to my high school in 1991!
