DESCRIPTION:
Cincinnati Symphony principal bass Owen Lee demos one of the world's oldest and rarest double basses. Crafted by Gasparo Da Salo in Brescia, Italy circa 1590, this beautiful and historically important bass is currently for sale at (and restored by) Cincinnati Bass Cellar. Pretty cool to hear this voice from so far in the past! (Filmed at Cincinnati Bass Cellar on July 10, 2016.)
