Impressive playing - hats off! Please help me understand something: Why would you play this on a double bass in E minor - a whole step HIGHER, in actual pitch, than what you get playing the piece on a cello in the original D minor? Playing the piece on a double bass would make sense if you made use of the lower range of that instrument. It would create a whole new and very attractive sonority.
It's because her bass is in solo tuning (F#-B-E-A). She's playing it D minor (because of the fingerings it's best to stay in the original tonality and octave) on the fingerboard but it sounds in E minor because of the tuning. Solo strings are used because they project more and require less strength to use. Hope that's more clear for you!
I'm pleased that this is allowed in competition. They should allow the same for classical and romantic cello repertoire. Music is all that matters. Conventions be damned. This is beautiful.
I played double bass as a child and can attest to the fact that it takes great finger strength to play the bass, much less a piece mainly in that position (close to the bridge). Bravo!!
Monstra! virei fã Infelizmente tenho visto o pessoal fazer esses improvisos no fim e acho que estraga a ideia toda. Não sei se acharam alguma partitura aí original com essas frases, mas até onde sei eram só acordes e sempre me arrepiei com eles. Esses improvisos aí cortam a vibe toda...
The emotional side of this suite is splendidly rendered with the double bass. Very beautiful version.
I'm speechless. As a double bass player myself, I'm very well aware of the difficulties of this piece. This girl is totally amazing.
I'm a cellist. This looks a lot harder on double bass than it does on cello. Amazing playing.

typo on the title card

Do you have cds released? You should if not....
Is their surname Bernat or Cernat? The video and the caption don't match.
첼로보다 더 비극성을
잘 나타낸다.
Which tuning does she use?
Solo tuning F# B E and A
In allemanda 3 bars to the end not b flat (Mark's mistake)
haha pov youre a double bass player who can barley shift watching this 😭
Good intonation but the bow is not always parallel to the floor…still pretty good…:/)

Remarkable technique and intonation and tasteful phrasing. What more could you ask for? excellent!

Pro tip - if you put this on repeat, it never has to end!
