Double bassist, professor @VUB, researcher @EhB/KCB, into all things B: Beatles, Blanton (Jimmie), bass (playing and researching), and Belgian jazz (history).
My article discusses how I re-enacted the music of Duke Ellington in order to better understand how the unamplified double bass of Jimmie Blanton was (being perceived as) louder than other swing bassists.
Fun to write, even more fun to play! 🎶🎻🎙️ (2/2)
