Common Beginner Problems on the Double Bass
WELCOMING JASON HEATH
Welcome to Jason Heath’s first interview with Discover Double Bass! Many of us will have heard Jason before through his fantastic podcast, Contrabass Conversations, and Jason is also an established performer, writer, and educator. We are thrilled that Jason has joined the DDB team as a specialist in Classical bass, focussing on teaching beginners.
In this video, Jason tells us about common problems you might experience as a beginner double bassist, and how you can fix those problems. Geoff and Jason discuss body positions, hand positions, and holding the bow.
