Legends of Jazz Bass Interview Series
Welcome to our Legends of Jazz Bass Interview series, where we asked 5 questions to 10 legends of the bass world.
Featuring: John Patitucci, John Clayton, Ron Carter, Chuck Israels, Brian Bromberg, Carlos Henriquez, Larry Grenadier, Linda May Han Oh, Rufus Reid, and Robert Hurst.
This series was filmed and created during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic and our artists filmed their responses at home. This project aimed to educate and inspire the double bass community by reaching out to artists outside of our own fantastic tutors. Big thanks go out to all the artists that took part and helped us create this series.
