Bass

Thursday, November 12th

Theo was once again in his recording studio after saying goodbye to Aurora when she went to school.

Theo wanted to start learning a new instrument today.

And it was another essential instrument in a music band.

The electric bass!

The bass guitar, upright bass, tuba, bassoon, and the far left keys on a piano are just a few overlooked instruments in music - they are all bass

instruments, playing lower frequency notes in

relation to the rest of the band.

The electric bass is certainly the most overlooked instrument in a music band.

It's normal for the listeners to not be able to hear the bass playing.

Many different factors cause bass to be difficult to pick out of a song. The anatomy of the human ear is mostly to blame, and things like overtones, recording techniques, rhythmic arrangement, and others can make learning to isolate bass in your ear even more tricky.
