Bravo!

"Wow, I had no idea you could get so much music out of a bass!" is invariably the response to the extraordinary skill and artistry of bassist Mark Morton. Audiences are forever astounded by the vast range, agility, mysteriously lush tone, and moving expressive power of the double bass in Morton’s hands. The athleticism required to play this enormous instrument makes Basso Bravo!® a delight for the eyes as well as the ears.

A Basso Bravo! performance ranges from the sublime to the playful... from the exciting to the reflective. Audiences always enjoy Morton’s witty and informative commentary. After experiencing Basso Bravo!, this marvelous instrument, this "deep, dark chocolate cello" known as the double bass, string bass, contrabass, or acoustic bass, just might become your favorite musical instrument!

Basso Bravo! performances feature Mark Morton on bass with piano accompaniment, sometimes with a recording of Mark Morton himself playing the piano part!
