Dear Jeremy, So beautiful!! Thank you for playing this gorgeous piece! I am sending it to Antonio Suarez because he is going to play it on his recital.... many congratulations!!!!!
Thank you so much, Orin! Glad you found this and enjoyed it! 🙂 Will remember to ask Tony about his recital date.
I have listened to this every day since it was uploaded. Thank you for this.
That our performance is part of your daily mix is a very nice compliment! :)
One of the sweetest works by the genius of my beloved Beethoven, I didn't know this version for double bass, which is absolutely beautiful! The interpretation of Maestro Jeremy McCoy and Maestra Aurelia Mika Chang is simply wonderful! - real reference interpretation for this delightful jewel! Many thanks for your wonderful upload Maestro and congrats for you both ❤🥰🥰🥰❤ PS. This channel is "a must subscribe" channel in YT, and the recording quality is perfect!
Thank you, Luiz! The first double bass transcription of this piece that I know of dates back to Franz Simandl (1840-1912). I'm very glad to hear you found it works well on our instrument! :)
gorgeous sound, inspiring, thank you.
Thank you so much for listening! 🙂
Bravíssimo!!!
Thank you for listening, Ricardo! :)

So beautiful, Jeremy! ❤ 0:58
Thanks so much, Gwen - glad you enjoyed it! :)
So beautiful I listened to the whole video twice in one hour…😂
Bravi! Beautiful sound from both of you!! Which edition is this may I ask?
Thank you, Glenn! I used the International edition (Simandl-Sankey) with my own choices of bowing and fingering. Should add that we used a piano transposition for orchestral tuning from douglasmappmusic.com/
outstanding Jeremy!! what a great journey!!
Thank you, Kevin! 👋
@@JeremyMcCoydoublebassist sure thing Jeremy! I'm learning a great deal from watching you play. I'm looking forward to the next one
Beautiful playing Jake and Mika!
Thanks, Gregg! Showed a bass trio your inventions video today. Probably too big a project for them to begin mid-semester but hopefully another time.
beauty, beauty, beauty!
Thanks, Geoff!! Hi to all of your gang. 👋
Bravo, Mr McCoy!!

Sounds so beautiful! Stunning sound Jake.
Thanks, Jeff! :)
Dear Jeremy, I am professional double bass player, congratulations about this wonderful recording!!!
I loved it. Please, could you tell me where I could get this score?
Thanks very much! I used an edition from International that is easy to find online and also inexpensive. It calls for solo tuning so, with bass orchestral tuning, we used a transposition of the piano part from douglasmappmusic.com
@@JeremyMcCoydoublebassist thank you very much! I have also some videos in CZcams, could I show you any of my videos? I have only big respect for you, maestro!!
Is this arrangement available to the general public? And if so, thru whom please? You do a very lovely performance of it!!!😊
International publishes this version for bass (ed. Simandl - Sankey). International's piano part is one whole tone higher for performance in solo tuning. douglasmappmusic.com sells a transposition of the piano part for orchestral tuning. Thanks for listening!
@@JeremyMcCoydoublebassist SWEET! Thank you for that! I am ON it!!
i so love this idea and wish more tasteful transcriptions would be done. do you think beethovens A ma cello sonata would be a good candidate potentially ?
i would also live to hear some Brahms that really fit the bass.
Thank you, John! Bass players do the Beethoven A+ and the Brahms E- is also done frequently. I have to confess I've never worked either into performance condition. There are several performances by expert double bassists on CZcams. See how you like them in transcription.
I really admire this work. I am a student and began working on it recently. I notice you’re not in solo tuning which means your accompanist has a transposed part. I am trying to find that same transposed part for the piano but as of now I have not had any luck. Can you tell me where I can find the part? Thanks
douglasmappmusic.com has a transcription for orchestral tuning for download. My pianist said she made a couple of corrections corresponding to the part she's used when accompanying violin but check out Douglas' transcription. He has many other orchestral tuning piano parts there as well.
@@JeremyMcCoydoublebassist thank you so much! This is extremely helpful.
