Rudolf Tulácek Ed: David Heyes . Three characterful, lyrical and enjoyable solos - Berceuse, Valse Miniature, Chant d'Amour - written in the salon style of the day and allowing the solo double bass to sing throughout the range of the instrument. Tulacek studied composition with Dvorak and his music echoes the Czech nationalist style, always melodic, tuneful and graceful. Newly typeset in 2009 and the edition also includes piano accompaniments for both solo and orchestral tunings. 'This music displays the old-fashioned sentimental romanticism typical of the salon music of the early 20th-century. All three deliciously lyrical pieces are in simple ABA song form.'
