- Nicholas Walker, professor of double bass at Ithaca College, plays an original composition, Chorale, commissioned in 2012 by the International Society of Bassists (ISB) Score for sale at the ISB online store: www.isbstore.co...
One of my all-time favourite pieces. Just beautiful.
Wow, I love this!
This is so beautiful. i"ve probably listened to it 10 times over the past three days.
Superb piece and a wonderful performance. Here is to many more!!!
I am amazed at Nick Walker’s artistry as a composer and a bassist. I was lucky enough to see this performance live. It still inspires me.
The expressive power of the sound architecture breaks with any form of transcription of the real to attach itself to the expression of an serene universe. Colors and rhythm of these compositions are a language that gives life to exaltation ✨
Wonderful !!
one of the most unique songs for contrabass...
This piece is amazing and inspires me as I attempt to write a cello chorale.
Guess I found what I wan‘t to play next!
I love this!
It will be interesting since I do play the german bow.
Thank you!
fire homie
A terrific work! I bought my copy from the ISB and I'm working on it, but I'd be lost without your performance video so I can see where all the harmonics lie.
Absolutely killin' it! This sounds great Nick!
Superb piece & musician
Thank you
Sublime ! Merci ! +
Just hear Colin Corner play this, killer piece!
Genius, virtuoso! 😄🇵🇭
Yeah
Thank you, Ratzo! I met you in 1989 at a Binghamton Jazz Camp (you were with Kenny Werner)! You played my bass that day in your show, and blew my mind!
outstanding!!
Me encantó, muy bonita la obra.. (Y)
So pure
👏👏👏
thank you bb
Love it, and just ordered the sheet music! Beautiful playing. Who made the bass?
Thank you, Ken! Orfeo Carletti is the maker. Looking forward to hearing your performance sometime.
Carletti, 20th Century? And it’ll be a while before I can perform your piece! I first heard it yesterday, on Tom Martin’s page. Lorraine Campet playing a Testore. But! Just the first few bars, I didn’t know about the tricky business later! My bass is by Luigi Chiericato, Venice 1894. It’s big, and has a dark orchestra sound. I may have to get some Spirocores to get all those harmonics to sing!
Amazing!
Where can I find this music? I would like to play this too.
Thanks
Thanks for your kind words. You can buy the music here: www.isbstore.com/nicholas-walker-choral.html?viewfullsite=1 and also support your ISB at the same time. 🙂
Nice
Salut Nicholas ! C'est très beau ce que tu joues. Donnes moi de tes nouvelles. ZOUZOU
Hi Zouzou! Hope you are well. xo
Does this incredible piece require solo tuning?
Since this piece is unaccompanied you can perform it in any tuning. it doesn't even require a low C string if you look at the score.
No solo tuning required. (I'm playing in Orchestra tuning in this video.) I also have a 5ths tuning version in the works, thanks to Gabriel Sakamoto and Joel Quarrington!
