- Today we welcome David Daly, principal double bassist of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. In this lesson, David gives us some tips about one of the most difficult parts of double bass playing - the lower register. We learn how to speak well at the bottom end, and how to produce that classic beefy double bass sound right down in the depths.

“Don’t ever want to be slower than the cello” 😁
Between about 1998 and 2001, I was lucky enough to have a fortnightly double bass lesson with Dave. He was my third teacher, and I never stopped having lesson between 1987 and 2001. There is always something to learn.
I used to drive 120 miles each way to the lessons on odd Saturdays mornings at nine in the morning in ex-BT Meastro van!
I hope Dave is doing well.
Best wishes from George
Such a good overview of some of our problems as bass players, and what a wonderfull right arm technique! Happy to know about Mr. portnoi book, very interesring!
That’s the most outstanding room of Basses I’ve ever seen. Beautiful!
I echo Valerie's comments and thank you for the great lesson, Mr. Daly. I was a student of James Orleans, who also studied with Portnoi. This was the primary focus of when I started the bass at the ripe young age of 26 was to obtain the most pure and focused sound I could achieve. Master classes with Gary Karr and further studies with Klaus Trumpf only built upon the whole idea of getting as much focused sound out of the bass as possible. Something I've been pushing on my students ever since. Your 15 minute demonstration is worth hours of lessons!
Vincent Osborn thanks Vincent. Glad you found it helpful. I also had a lesson with Gary, a real inspiration. Good luck with the playing!
Hi Thomas and George.
I would like to share with you how much I feel at home watching all of your video uploads. Some in particular have become valuable pieces of information to me. Just like this one, as a good example. I keep coming back to watch this video again and again.
Like Thomas did one day, I am in the process of attempting to switch to the French bow. On each interaction with this video I learn something more, as I progress on at least being able to hold the bow effectively. It seems like each time Diesel's amazing lesson makes more and more sense.
One is also given a chance to hear and even familiarize with this great collection of fine instruments.
As well as the so well educated players that amaze us all with the sound they get with those basses .
Again, I always learn a bit more every time I watch these performances recorded in this temple. What a sacred place! Thank you!
Beautiful bass
Thanks for the great lesson, Mr. Daly, wonderful tips! I studied with Henry Portnoi and your lesson brought back fond memories. Mr. Portnoi was an amazing teacher, tough as nails, but so worth studying with. I use Creative Bass Technique to this day to start out my college kids in Brazil. All the best and thanks again!
Thanks Valerie. How wonderful that you studied with Mr. Portnoi! Great that you can pass on that wisdom and skill to the next generation not too.
Thank you so much
Great tutorial. Lots for me to work on! Thanks so much for sharing this.
Amazing. Thank you so much for your knowledge and time doing this video.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much !Very clear concepts!
Thank you Juan!
Glad it was helpful!
This was fantastic and very insightful. Mr. Daly not only zeroed in on several issues that for me have gone insufficiently answered by teachers etc for years, but he addressed several of these issues and answered them very articulately. Thank you Mr. Daly! Enlightening and helpful...
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thanks Vincent. I’m delighted you found my talk helpful!

Thank you Fr Ole!
Thanks for listening
Thank you, David! This was an excellent description of what I have been experimenting with myself and trying to share with my students. I believe as you that keeping the arm a little stiffer focuses and seems to amplify the sound of the instrument. Do you use an Italian bow grip? I use several types on recordings. Thank you for your time!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice lesson! who is the bow maker of this bow?
bridge washers under the 2nd and 3rd strings?
Whats below your tailpiece?
Excellent stuff-detect an Irish accent there??
bowing is so hard
My teachers always scolded me for keeping my arm too straight. I had no idea it was actually a real technique!
Glad you enjoyed the lesson and found it helpful!
Slap it
Thanks for watching!
What about slap bass?.. Not everyone plays with a bow.
ed wither sorry Ed! Not my thing slap bass, but I’m sure you’ll find other videos which will help.
