Abstract "This program discusses the instruments in the bass section of an orchestra--particularly the double bass. We see how the double bass, originally developed as an accompanying instrument, was used more prominently by such musical notables as double bass virtuoso and conductor Serge Kussevitzky--mentor of the late Leonard Bernstein. Music by Hadyn and others illustrates the use of other bass instruments, including the tuba, bass cornet, serpent, ophicleide, bass saxophone, and bass horn."
