Aeolian Air

Atmospheric and musically rewarding, Aeolian Air would be ideal for the intermediate bassist who is just venturing into low thumb position. Suitable for legato and cantabile playing, with a few technical challenges thrown infor good measure, this offers much to the intermediate bassist. Written in the Aeolian mode - the white keys on the piano - this is a quality work from one of the leading composers writing for the double bass today. Tony Osbornehas the rare ability to write interesting effective and idiomatic music for any level of bassist and this is successful as both a teaching piece and in recital.
