For his second release of 2020, Leon Bosch is joined by pianist Rebeca Omordia as he turns to the music of his native South Africa. The South African Double Bass features eight brand new pieces and one transcription, written at Bosch’s request by some of the country’s foremost composers and musicians. The pieces reveal a range of inspirations from Zulu roots, South African jazz, the African landscape …and African beer.
