G.ROSSINI-Sonata a Quattro No.3 in C Major-Part 3/3

[Bruno53ification]

Thanks for the Rossini delightful String Sonata #-3 in C major from a classical music lover from USA!

Well played. Rossini wrote this delightfull Mozartian piece when he was only 11 years old! (original for 2 violins, cello and double bass).

As as bassist myself, I really appreciate the bass solo on 1"02. Gruesse aus den Niederlande

@melomaniac1984 could you perhaps tell me if this is the proper tempo? because I play this piece with my orchestra now, and I have to play a solo, but our conductor is trying to make us play it at an insane speed, way faster than this. is it supposed to be played at this tempo, or faster?

[melomaniac1984]

@thereez93 hello bass collegue, I like the tempo in this video, it could be a bit slower in my opinion. There are some theories about tempi in classical music, but in the end it is a personal choice and taste. I hope you can convince your conductor not to play it unplayable fast. In which orchestra/city do you play? i'm dutch by the way, bye!

@melomaniac1984 Hoi, ik ben ook dutch dus ik antwoord ook maar even in het nederlands =) ik speel in een jeugdorkest in Groningen, en eerlijk gezegd geen bas maar 1e viool, we doen dat stukje met die triolen als solo. ik vind het tempo in dit filmpje ook wel prima eigenlijk =)

Well prayed. This piece is original for quartet consisting 2 violins, cello and double bass. Rossini was only 11 years old with he wrote his delightfull Mozartian music. As a bass player myself i really appreciate the bass solo!
