April in G for Contrabass Duet

Patrick Neher – April in G for Contrabass Duet

Neher - April in G bass duet
Cover
Score and parts

April, 2020, was supposed to be a beautiful month of creative endeavors, concerts, and flowering trees. Instead it is a bit dreary – never the less, out of pathos comes enlightenment and cheer. Patrick Neher has composed a wonderfully fun duet for double bass players, April in G. The virtuosic composition uses the entire range of the bass (of course) and explores passionate lyricism, professional technique, and expansive chordal textures. The piece is truly fun to play and to listen to, but requires a dedicated level of playing (or for those aspiring to be professional).

A challenging and fun new duet for the repertory, April in G is ready to be performed!

Dittersdorf Sonata for viola & contrabass, or 2 basses

DittersdorfKarl Ditters Von Dittersdorf composed this Sonata in Eb for viola and contrabass sometime in the 1780s. This new edition is a completely revised editing and arrangement of the work. The editing, done by Patrick Neher, professor of music, takes into account the two existing scores of the piece and adapts much to accommodate the modern double bass. It is thought that the music was composed for the Viennese Contrabass, tuned in D major. So, an edition for two basses has been produced as well. Both editions are available NOW!
