101: Jeff Bradetich Interview

It is a real pleasure to be able to put out this interview with University of North Texas and Cleveland Institute of Music faculty member Jeff Bradetich. Jeff was a huge influence on my early development, and I continue to use the principles he taught me in my own teaching and performing each and every day. We get really "inside baseball" on some technical considerations for the bass in this interview, which I'm sure you'll enjoy, and we also feature a track of Jeff performing the Czardas by Vittorio Monti from his excellent album Portraits. We'll conclude this interview in the next few weeks and really get into Jeff's exciting new double bass foundation, which you can learn more about atwww.bradetichfoundation.org. Enjoy!
