Songs are part of the childhood. This collection aims to offer a variety of songs for string ensembles, such as young string orchestras or string classes. Included are older and newer songs, songs of various origins, and songs for different occasions and with themes ranging from animals to seasons and times of day to tongue-in-cheek scary subjects.Taking up the motif of diversity in their own way, the six-part arrangements are not confined to the usual cadence harmonies and accompaniment forms, There is something special to discover in each of the songs. Small vignettes with lyrics to them are found in the parts, and can be taken up in rehearsals and lessons.The songs begin with fingering positions and bowing techniques that are usually learned at the beginning of lessons, then gradually increase in difficulty, though the booklet as a whole is set at the elementary level. Suggestions for improvisation and pieces for practicing certain requirements round out the booklet. Special emphasis is placed on playing together - true to the title: Together on Strings!

In Book 2 we progress from the first position up and beyond the half, second and third positions to reach the second high position. Shifting is also obviously treated in detail. New bowing techniques such as spiccato and col legno are on the program, as well as typical double-bass parts from orchestral works of famous composers and information concerning the instrument. This runs like a red thread through every chapter. In addition, students can indulge in jazz bass playing through their first jazz standards.Kontrabass Book 2 offers a wealth of material for the progressing young bassist. Although the text is in German, most of the technical requirements are easy to understand. (David Heyes , Double Bass Sheet Music Reviews)

We didnt want to let all those enthusiastic double-bass students wait too long for the second book of Kontrabass! - so here it is!
