Flight of the Bumble-Bee for two Double Basses

Flight of the Bumble-Bee by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Arranged for two Double Basses and performed by Lev Weksler. I approached several superb pianists about recording with me the piano part of the Flight of the Bumble-Bee. None of them agreed, perhaps because they didn’t feel that a bassist is worthy of accompaniment. I was frustrated at first, but than calmed down, thinking that maybe they feared not being able to do the job in my tempo. Finally, I decided to arrange the piece for two double basses. Big thanks to the friend of mine Denis Pekine, for filming and editing this video.
