ABOUT THE TRACK:

"How my bass sings" is a melodic tune based on the soft sound of natural harmonics (pizzicato as well as bowed) which is so typical in double-bass playing. Even though overdubbing is "not my cup of tea", this time I overdubbed an accompaniment in an almost latinish style, and a light third track that echoes the melody.
