RE: Music Life - A Little Bit of Cellist Hell with Canon in D, and Some Sleepy Time with a Vivaldi Concerto
I sing bass in choir, and this struggle is so real in the bass section. Some pieces have a lot of great variation and can be challenging and fun, but sometimes we're performing a song that's 6 minutes long, and the bass section sings the same 4 measures over and over again. Yikes!
I love listening to the bass lines in choir pieces! That really deep sound that provides harmonic support... XD I guess it's the influence of being a cellist!
And yup, some pieces are technically boring for choir, the sopranos and altos get the good parts!
We basses always get excited for the more technically demanding stuff. :D
I not so secretly adore cello, for perhaps the same reason you listen for the bass line—it's the bedrock of the sound in so many pieces, and I love it!
