Rameau: Tambourin
Giordani: Larghetto
Arranged for Double Bass and Piano by H Samuel Sterling
Standard: Intermediate
The lively
Tambourin
by Rameau is among the most popular of baroque instrumental pieces, and in H. Samuel Sterling’s idiomatic arrangement for double bass and piano it forms a welcome addition to the bassist’s repertoire. Giordani’s stately
Larghetto
is an ideal counterweight, and an exercise in sustained, expressive playing and is around Grade 6 standard.
