Contrabass training
If you want to learn this beautiful instrument, probably the first thought that comes to your mind is to enroll in a music school near where you live. Face-to-face classes have their own advantages and disadvantages. First of all, the face-to-face class you choose must be close to where you live, otherwise, the travel time and related costs will increase. The contrabass is a lesser-known instrument and if you live in small towns you may not be able to find a class to teach it or if you do find a teacher your hands are tied and you won't have many choices. To participate in face-to-face classes, you must have an empty schedule that matches the class time. As mentioned above, it can be very difficult to make a place of this size to participate in classes. Therefore, you may think of hiring a private teacher who will charge you more due to the conditions of the class. But we have a much easier and even more affordable way for you, which we will explain more about later.
