Vojta Kuchynka Ed: David Heyes . Orchestral Tuning Edition. Czech bassist-composer Vojta Kuchynka wrote many works for double bass, displaying the various facets of the solo instrument but always keeping Czech lyricism and folk idioms to the fore. A composition student of Dvorak, Kuchynka writes in a traditional and accessible style combining melodic interest with technical bravura and most of his works remain in manuscript. Recital Music are planning to publish a number of these pieces as part of their ongoing 'Heritage Series'. 'Canzonetta is based on a simple lyrical melody in typical ABA form. The middle section makes use of easy double-stops and folk-like drone accompaniment. This piece would be ideal for the intermediate level player who is working in thumb position and learning treble clef.' (ISB) This edition includes piano accompaniments for both solo and orchestral tunings. Recorded by Frantisek Posta and Mette Hanskov. [Grade 8 - Trinity-Guildhall] . Performance Level: 8.. Grade: 8
