What does the narrator say about the basses? I can't understand him.

@jacobflaschen

The narrator says: "And now we come to the double basses. They're the largest string instrument, and they are the deepest and grandfather of the strings."

The original score says: "The doublebasses are the grandfathers of the String family, with heavy, grumbling voices."
