Many of these arpeggios may be of particular interest to jazz players. Because there are three complete octaves in every key available on double basses with a fingerboard of average length, each arpeggio type is presented... Arranges the twelve key centers in ascending chromatic order from E to E-flat. Each key includes major, major/maj7, dominant 7, augmented, minor, minor/min7, diminished, half-diminished, and fully diminished arpeggios. Many of these arpeggios may be of particular interest to jazz players. Because there are three complete octaves in every key available on double basses with a fingerboard of average length, each arpeggio type is presented in three one-octave, two two-octave, (the middle octave is included in two-octave arpeggios), and one three-octave arpeggio.
Every note in this book has a fingering indication. Notes requiring a shift are notated with a large, bold number. Notes in position are notated with a small, fine number. The preface includes suggestions regarding rhythm and bowing, but the player is free to play them at any speed, any octave(s), any rhythm, or any bowing. These fingerings may be too difficult for novice players, and it is recommended they begin with the Primer.
