UNACCOMPANIED DOUBLE BASS MUSIC

UNACCOMPANIED DOUBLE BASS MUSIC

THEMES:

LABYRINTH

Program Notes:

While composing Big Mouse for unaccompanied double bass, I envisioned an oversized mouse trying to break free from a complex labyrinth. Upon researching the topic, I discovered that while humans might become repeatedly lost in a labyrinth, a mouse would map out the maze on its first attempt and thereafter navigate it effortlessly.
 

Big Mouse is dedicated to Eran Borovich.
