250: Diana Gannett on her musical journey

Diana Gannett

Diana Gannett may be the most thoughtful double bass teacher I’ve ever encountered.

I find her approach to teaching comprehensive and nuanced. Talking with her, I instantly see how she incorporates everything from group warm-ups to Aikido principles on her website. Believe me, every bassist should have this site bookmarked!

But she’s not just a great teacher—she’s a jaw-droppingly talented performer.

You have to hear her sound to believe it. She energizes every note she plays with this magnificent and distinctive tone.

We go deep into her approach to teaching and also feature excerpts from her wonderful solo album Lady Bass. I know you’ll enjoy this episode!
