Double Bass

The double bass, the largest member of the string family, forms the foundation of the entire orchestra and is also a staple in jazz ensembles.

Perfect for students looking to make a distinct musical contribution, it is an ideal choice for those with some music reading or piano experience, as they tend to progress quickly. Instrument hire is available through the Music Department, subject to availability.

Watch Rinat Ibragimov, Principal Double Bass for the London Symphony Orchestra, perform here.
