La Traviatas' Basses

Writer: Ashley FramptonAshley Frampton

A seven minute romp through Verdi's wonderful; grand opera La Traviata.

This arrangement for Bass quartet was commissioned by the Welsh National Opera Double bass section and first perform during their tour in 2018.

The selection has some well known and less well known pieces from the opera, the outcome is rather like a Bottesini Double bass quartet :-)
