I remember when one his old pupils, Barry Green, came and played this at my university. Still one of my favorite music compositions ever. The story behind it was he composed it in response to Venice's slowly deteriorating state at the time.
Fabulous! It is wonderful to hear a double bass played soloistically with standard tuning rather than the tuning a whole step higher, which denatures and unnaturally lightens the sound of the instrument without improving projection.
oh my good god...I've never heard the original composer version quite like this.. except maybe from McNally appearance. I love Barry Green's interpretation, but obviously only the creator can recapture it in its purest form.
A master, saw him some 20 years ago at U of Maryland. So glad I got to see him perform while he still had all his powers.
So so beautiful!!!

Thanks so much for uploading this! I was looking a recording of him playing this piece like forever. This is really something for me! Thanks again!
This was the soundtrack to a really good Iraqi movie. It’s an incredible melody

اليس هو الملحن الاصلي ؟
Bir arkadaş tavsiyesiyle dinliyorum çok derin ve çok sarsıcı birazda huzur ben de tavsiye ederim iyi dinlemeler...
Does anyone has the written notes for this?
It’s in “Nouvelle Technique de la Contrebasse” volume 5, which you can buy online!
Si seulement je connaissais les 30 premiers seconde en partition, je pourrai essayer d'en faire une musique
