Melody and harmony woven by the piccolo bass
This album by bassist Ron Carter features the piccolo bass, which has a higher range than a regular bass, and includes solo performances and small ensembles.
This album demonstrates Ron Carter's profound understanding of his instrument. His piccolo bass solo reveals his sophisticated technique of simultaneously playing bass lines, melodies, and chords. His tone, resembling a cello, sings standard tunes with rich expressiveness. In arrangements featuring Steven Scott (piano) and others, he also uses a standard bass, focusing on supporting the entire ensemble. This album encapsulates his multifaceted talent.
