The double bass, also called the string bass, upright bass, bass violin or contrabass, is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed string instrument in the modern symphony orchestra. Like many other string instruments, the double bass is played either with a bow (arco) or by plucking the strings (pizzicato). Did you know that double bass is typically constructed from several types of wood.
Prince William Maurice of Saxony-Merseburski (1694-1731) was a lover of music. He had such a great bass that to play on it you had to go up the ladder!!
