i love playing classical tunes on my bass,it may not be metal but it helps your playing so much, and It would be really cool to hear if anyone else out there rocks out to classical stuff like me with Bach.

Ill post some tabs later on of a couple Bach inventions!!!

hell yes on the upright correct??? my fav classical is called russian sailors dance

__________________

ill post the rest of it ( the fourth invention) on Friday!

I started learning Moonlight Sonata a while ago, never finished. I learned Cannon in D with my mom on violin, and I sometimes play compositions from the Final Fantasy games.

I love playing the Cello Suites
I may still have a vid of me playing the Prelude to Suite No. 1 in G major...A bit vain, but I was pretty proud to get it down. Really helps out your dexterity.

right on stachio, your rad, lol its not really that vain to record yourself. I watch mirrors when i play all the time to check out my technique. The cello suites are sort of tough, but beautiful, and worth the work. I also know the Suite No. 1 in G major we should do a duet version. With one bass completely distorted and one bass completely phased, right on

Heres a version of Flight of the bumblebee (bass), with drums that i found.

That would be interesting. That was the first piece I learned. I need a refresher. I'll let you know when I'm up to par.

right on

Lol sounds like a bunch of improvised notes, but the crazy thing is, its a real song.

a dude named scott hubbel does a good version too

I remember playing "Hall Of The Mountain King" on my bass !

Stu Hamm does a nice tapping piece of 'Moonlight sonata' which im sure some of you might of heard, its worth learning and its not too tricky due to how slow it is.

yep i found a tab for it a while a go, and heard his version on radio free albumueth ( whatever the spelling is). It is still tricky though, despite that its slow
