Spiccato Lesson for Beginners by Jason Heath
In this short lesson our fantastic classical bass specialist, Jason Heath, teaches the basics of an off-the-string bowing technique, spiccato. Bouncing the bow can appear simple, but it’s challenging to master. Jason talks through bow position, bow hold and posture to help you play crisp and accurate notes with ease.
This lesson is a preview from Jason’s course, Beginner's Classical Bass. Both this course, and his Intermediate to Advanced Classical Bass course will each be updated with four new lessons. More details of this update are below the video.
