Lazy bass



This is a computer-generated sound file -
it is not the same as an actual performance,
so why not find a performance, or better still,
buy the music and get a few friends together to play it !!!


I am intrigued with the idea of using harpischord and a plucked string bass instrument, almost like a continuo to accompany the recorder in cool jazz style pieces. I hope one day to perform them with some friends but until I get an invitation here is one of them with synthesised harpsichord.
 
This piece for Bass Recorder was inspired by the scoring of Nelson Riddle on an LP he made with Oscar Peterson in the 1960s - hands up who else remembers that record!
