Your music is extreamly soothing in a world in chaos. Humanity may be lost, staggering in its own vomit, for lock of direction, purpose, or a truth compas. But the music on this titanic is bloody fantastic.
👏👏👏
Nice mate this is helping me for my music exam which is next week a re test
Wow, such a piece! It evoked on my mind an introspective atmosphere! Bass solo is beautifully expressive. It's like the bass is "crying" for love. You and the pianist made a great performance!👌👌 Congratulations for you!👏👏👏🍻🍻🎹🎸
Thank you so so much for the sheet music in the description I really appreciate it so much as a student ❤ New subscriber!
Thanks for this!
Thanks for this!
Stunningly beautiful!! Thank you for sharing.
Really enjoying all these videos - especially because they're original compositions. They're modern and honestly pretty cinematic. (and inspiring to me, as a beginner double-bass player.)
BRAVOOo!!!!!!
Замечательно
bravo, fantastic!
Absolutely beautiful.
This is breathtaking, mesmerizing. Wow
Bravo, Bravo!
Loved it! Your energy made it sound very good and it was a great performance for such a hard instrument. Nice job!
Great tone, that low C is huge. Are you using pirastro flat-chromes? Can't quite see the colour
Flat-Chromesteels, well spotted.
Transcedental beauty! Loved it so much, thanks for this! ❤️ I'm a new subscriber, just saw your other double bass playing videos and loved them. Stay blessed and carry on, man!
Wow ❤️

À beautiful piece of music and what a pleasure to hear your rendition! Congratulations on this fine recording.
Great! it's a real pleasure to hear you on this fantastic instrument. thank you so much.
This video deserves at least a million more views. I’ve never heard a double bass sound so versatile before. Fantastic playing.
beautiful composition and amazing performance...so talented!
Thank you!
You're a badass. Gonna get an extension and learn this
dude.... wow
Just so beautiful music!!!
Wonderful!
Love your sound. Dark, smooth and clean, what's not to like. Just keep using those extension notes, they're glorious!
I know, right? Those notes sound epic.
Here from Reddit, this sounds really good :)
I realize that this beautiful piece was composed pre-pandemic, but I cannot help but think that this performance in June 2021 reflects much of our shared experiences of forced solitude--- loneliness bordering at times on despair but with decided notes of joyful optimism and self-contentment. Gorgeously written, the collaborative rendition by the composer, Alex Verster, and the pianist, John Reddihough, was both brilliantly executed and lovingly delivered to the audience. I cannot stop listening to it. Bravi, gentlemen!

An other beautiful piece !!! Congratulations
