Course Description

Bass is the rhythmic and harmonic foundation of any ensemble. We’ll discuss how to construct bass lines that perform those two functions while also being melodic and interesting. This is not just a class for bass players, though. It’s recommend for pianists and guitar players who perform solo and need to be their own bass player, as well as writer/arrangers who need to compose bass lines.
