Introduction to Upright Bass

Introduction to Upright Bass

Intro to Upright Bass DVD by Andy Howald is a 70 minute video lesson that covers the material in the Upright Bass Primer Book. It focuses on the beginning player and emphasizes proper technique. The video will discuss parts of the bass, proper playing position, tuning the bass, right and left hand technique, marking the positions, how to read tablature, playing notes, how to play with other instruments, and the lesson will also teach several songs. We'll focus on playing in a folk or bluegrass style and learn how to play several bluegrass standards. The video features split screens that allow for close up views of the left and right hand as well as the tablature to be on screen at the same time.
