New Music for
Double Bass
The Double Bass plays a significant role
in many of Nigel Morgan's recent scores as both a solo instrument
and as part of this composer's unique reinvention of the Baroque
continuo group for the 21C. Working closely with David Langstroth
(formerly of BBC National Orchestra of Wales) has resulted
in a lively collection of new music featuring the bass in
solo, chamber and orchestral contexts.
