Xavier Foley Publishes “The Solo Book”
Xavier Foley has announced The Solo Book, which compiles all of the double bassist’s solo music into a PDF. That includes 30 pieces of music, but Foley explains that the book will be updated and emailed to you every time he writes a new solo bass piece.
Foley’s catalog includes 12 etudes, three sketches, as well as fifteen more pieces for bass. His writing style varies from “A Letter to Beethoven” to the “Irish Fantasy” to “Upright Metal”. If you’re looking to learn some new solo double bass music to challenge yourself, give this a shot.
The Solo Book is available now for $99 through Foley’s website.
