OT: Classical Composition

[NoFrets80]

Hey guys. I spent the afternoon in my project studio recording something that is still a bit foreign to me, and something I've been working on for a bit. I composed a short miniature for solo double bass, and while it certainly isn't groundbreaking, I feel confident enough about my bowing on it to want to share it with folks. So, here it is, warts and all. Enjoy. We had an almost 60 degree day today after weeks of sub-30 temps, hence the title.

Very nice tone! Do you play German or French? I think it's almost time for me to break out Simandl again - been spending too much time with the electric.

I play German... tried French when I first started on the DB, but my wrists never got acclimated to it, and my tone wasn't great. I switched to German and never looked back.
