With its three double bass players the quartet Intermission emphasizes the lowest sounds and makes them tangible.

  2. This is absolutely awesome Vitko! I love the sound of multiple double basses and the use of the various "ethnic" instruments adds even more to the atmosphere and the sense of mystery. Thank you very much. Posts like that make me love this blog more and more. Keep up your great work. I, for one, am grateful.
