About the Book 

Bass Clef Solos is a series featuring fifty original works and transcriptions for the intermediate and progressing double bassist.

Each piece has been carefully selected for the series, with piano accompaniments that are supportive and accessible, creating an exciting and innovative collection that should appeal to bassists of all ages.
