Taught by renowned double bassistÂ
Rufus Reid
This course starts off with Rufus Reid walking us through some very basic ideas on the piano that can help us with our fundamental music theory, useful for constructing jazz lines on the double bass. He then brings all these ideas over to the double bass, and instructs us on how being friendly with the piano can help us to be better musicians, make better bass lines, and truly reach the next level in our creativity on the bass.
