It was great to have Valentina Ciardelli back on the podcast to talk about all the new developments in her career. In this episode, recorded on February 20, we dig into her new arrangements, including Zappa, Stravinsky, and her new arrangement of ‘Nei Cieli Bigi’ from La Bohème for cello and bass. We also talk about Music Academy International and other topics.
Valentina is currently offering Skype lessons for bassists worldwide, so be sure to reach out to her if you’d like to study with this inspiring artist! Also, she is now selling the following two arrangements online:
- Sonata Nr.1 per contrabbasso e pianoforte: Sonata for double bass and piano (Music from the Sphinx)
- Vissi d’arte – from opera “Tosca” for solo double bass
