Jason Heath: Fundamentals of Double Bass Technique

After interviewing hundreds of bass performers and teachers, I’ve learned one thing: there are countless ways to approach learning the double bass!

This book contains some of my favorite double bass exercises. I keep coming back to these time and time again over the years, and I’ve used them with hundreds of students.

I learned every single one of these exercises from somebody else. Like everyone, my playing and teaching is a mixture of ideas from all the great teachers and performers with whom I’ve worked.

When possible, I’ve given credit to the person from whom I learned the exercise.

I hope you find this book useful, and please share it freely with friends and students!
