Domenico Dragonetti – Waltz No. 1

performed by ‪@raczbass‬ Video production by Daniel Tatrai Sheet music edited by Tobias Glöckler (@ContrabassUrtext) at G. Henle Publishers: https://www.henle.de/en/hn847 A true delight for double bass players: The collection of twelve stylized waltzes by Beethoven’s contemporary Domenico Dragonetti. The “Paganini of the double bass” grew up in Venice, but moved to London as an adult. It is there that he probably wrote the twelve waltzes. They are quite likely the earliest surviving works for double bass solo. These charming pieces have until now not been published in their entirety. Despite their virtuosic impression, the technical hurdles can be comfortably mastered; the pieces are therefore not only suited for the concert hall but are also perfect encores. Our quality Urtext edition, is thus able to fill a true gap in the repertoire. _____________________________ Learn more about ... ... Printed Urtext editions: https://www.henle.com. ...
