About this exposition

Although the bass guitar is a relatively young instrument compared to most other chordophones, its performance has often been confined by tradition, following near-dogmatic conventions of ‘what’ and ‘how’ to play. At the core of these tenets is its monophonic accompaniment role, primarily articulating melodic lines in the low-frequency range with rhythmic patterns. Portfolio presents eight compositions that explore the bass guitar beyond this paradigm. These original solo pieces are outputs of an artistic research thesis and constitute a thematic album centered on a polyphonic approach to the bass guitar.
