“Our double bass lessons at Booths Music offer students the chance to learn the foundation of the string family and explore the powerful, resonant sound of this impressive instrument. “
As the backbone of orchestral, jazz, and ensemble music, double bass lessons is an excellent choice for musicians who enjoy rhythm, harmony, and playing a vital supporting role within a group.
Learning the double bass through dedicated string lessons develops strong musical awareness, coordination, and a deep understanding of rhythm and harmony. Due to its size and range, students also build physical confidence, posture awareness, and refined listening skills. Double bass players are consistently in demand for orchestras, jazz bands, and ensembles, making it a highly rewarding instrument both musically and socially.
At Booths Music, our double bass string lessons focus on healthy technique, including correct posture, left-hand position, bowing or pizzicato technique, and tone production. Lessons can be tailored towards classical orchestral playing, jazz styles, graded exams, ensemble work, or personal musical goals, ensuring a flexible and supportive learning experience for students of all ages.
We are delighted to offer double bass string lessons with Carlo, our specialist double bass tutor. Carlo brings extensive experience and a practical, encouraging approach to teaching, helping students build strong technical foundations while developing musical confidence. In addition to specialising in double bass, Carlo also teaches singing lessons, offering a unique and holistic perspective on musicianship, breathing, and musical expression.
Whether you are new to the double bass or transitioning from another instrument, double bass lessons at Booths offer a rewarding path into expressive ensemble and solo playing, guided by expert tuition in a supportive learning environment. Furthermore, students can discover the distinctive voices of the violin and viola, from soaring melodies to rich, resonant foundations.
In addition to string tuition, we offer lessons on a variety of other instruments, including banjo, ukulele, and mandolin, taught from our downstairs studios.
