Excellent playing. But I would like to point out something about the pianist. She is excellent as well and please have a look to what she does when Matthew is playing the Candenza. She is LISTENING. That's what an excellent musician does and, unfortunately, you won't find this seriousness of work and behavior as often as needed. Bravo both players!
Did he actually do the ending up the D string? That's incredible! I haven't seen anyone else doing that. This version is amazing. Both the piano and the bass have outstanding articulation and the sound is very light and careless. Truly amazing playing!
Bravo! Your performance brightened and warmed an otherwise cold, rainy Monday morning. Please post more. Thank you! Your instrument speaks so clearly across the entire range (and then some). Please, who is the maker, date of construction (string manufacturer/gage and tuning too if you don't mind)?
very, very good and beautiful tecnicque and sound. Perhaps a little bit too much fast, Bottesini want a very melodic approach and consequent tempo, more a MAESTOSO caracter. Anyway, great bassist!
I mean, I have to disagree. I feel like the only possible way you could think this is if you played some other instrument then the bass, or just dislike the bass in general. 7:53 might be one of my favorite parts of any solo music that I have listened to.
Incredible artistry!

Os Rub totally agree with you, i have years trying to find a good pianist and it's really sad and disapointing after all this time i have not
Mathew is the principal contrabassist of Berlin Philh.
Amazing skill and detail. I love his playing and this recording! Good job piano too!
Just amazing!!!! Thank you for share sir.

It’s actually easier on the d string, since after the high D almost every note is a harmonic on the D
Nice combination!
The sound is very comfortable and the piece proceeds smoothly.
A revolution in the bass sound! Amazing!
Beatiful playing Matthew🎉
Fantastic performance, i love how you took your time on the passages, your version and the one joel quarrington recorded are the best. Regards.
So light and easy going... LOVE IT!
Big fan both of your solo and orchestra playing!!!
Muito lindo ...perfeito. ...
inspiração pra alma pra mente e pro aprendizado. .
This is inspiring me to start learning the bass!!!
Awesome as usual!

Faltou melhor sonoridade no Double Bass está com pouca intensidade. A peça musical é muito bonita.
very, very good and beautiful tecnicque and sound. Perhaps a little bit too much fast, Bottesini want a very melodic approach and consequent tempo, more a MAESTOSO caracter. Anyway, great bassist!
Maybe a little too fast
손꼬이네

A bit underwhelming
You couldn’t play it with intensity near this lol
@@GregoryFaught it sounds bad
@@Anonymous-rp4hn you play it then lol

@@GregoryFaught does the piece sound bad to you, or just the player?

Fantastic!
