Happy Hump Day to you all! As we head over the workweek hump and head toward that weekend we all work for I have come up with a couple of delightful pieces of music to enthrall you today. "Rinat Ibragimov, principal double bass of the London Symphony Orchestra together with Catherine Edwards, performs Jan Křtitel Vaňhal's Double Bass Concerto and Carl Ditters von Dittersdorf's Double Bass Concerto, both originally written in Es Major but performed here a semitone lower. These popular pieces of double bass repertoire are commonly called for in auditions, and here Rinat demonstrates their performance using the original bass part and the Viennese Tuning that would have been in vogue at the time of their composition. Rinat plays a d-bass by Matheus Albany, a gift from his colleague and friend Alexander Stepanov. He uses Pirastro Eudoxa strings." While your listening to these wonderful musical performances you can scroll down the page and check out all the adorable Humpable Hunks I have posted to inspire and excite you. Now I am off to take a nap before taking on the usual chores and shopping therapy as is normal for my hump day. Thank you for your visit, see you again tomorrow. Until next time as always, Enjoy!
