fatgoogle Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Oooh. I might just fly for the Dan Styffe masterclass, presuming its more on orchestral then solo. Quote
ubassman Posted August 16, 2013 Author Posted August 16, 2013 ...not sure on the content being orchestral . The summer masterclasses were all about the solo repertoire and I suspect that the formula will be the same . Quote

aonindy Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 @fatgoogle keep an eye on Tom Barretts website, he helps organise double bass masterclasses in Ireland. I was at one of them and it was amazing: http://doublebassireland.com/recent-events Quote
ubassman Posted September 14, 2013 Author Posted September 14, 2013 We will have to try and work out an exchange programme ! Quote
