244: Christine Hoock on DJs, egoless playing, and patience

Christine Hoock

Christine Hoock is a tossed salad of musical genres.

Maybe she’s playing Phillip Glass.  Perhaps she’s performing Arvo Pärt.  She could even be playing tangos or jamming with a DJ.

But regardless of what she’s playing, it’s with her beautiful, compelling sound.

Günter Klaus and Franco Petracchi taught her, and she has taken the double bass a new level.

She has total command of the bass and is a compelling world-class artist.

Learn how she does it in this interview!
