Today’s episode dives into the multifaceted career of bassist and pianist Ernst Glerum, focusing on his recent piano-bass album Détaché.

We delve into Ernst’s use of gut strings on his mid-19th-century English bass and his shift to a mix including Pirastro Olive strings. Ernst shares his compositional process, the technical challenges and expressive nuances of playing with gut strings versus steel strings, particularly the influence of rosin type on sound quality.

Ernst speaks fondly about his admiration for iconic musicians and his future plans for composing new music, encapsulating the essence of his artistic explorations.
