Luciano Varela

Hello!! My name is Luciano, and I’m a professional double bass player. After graduating in classical music in Spain, I moved to the Netherlands, where I studied Jazz Music in the Royal Conservatory (The Hague), graduating finally in World Music in CODARTS (Rotterdam).

Since starting my journey as a musician, I have been looking for my musical place. Playing African percussion, Classical double bass player (being part of several Symphony orchestras like OSG, RFG, Spanish Chamber Orchestra, Opus 23…), Jazz, and Latin double bass and rock, Pop, reggae, as an electric bass player. Well-knowing that the music had to be part of my life as me be part of it. Nowadays, I know that my place is with that feeling, and my main objective is still learning every day, my role as a double bass or electric bass player in all the different styles. My potential as a musician and composer is using all the different skills I gained during my career.

I have experience playing classical music as a soloist or chamber music. we will work on:

• classical repertoire. orchestral excerpts. technical aspects. sound and musicality.

On the other hand, I have experience playing modern music in several kinds of bands. We will work focusing on:

• Groove. How to be the base of the rest of the band. How to create bass lines. How to improvise. transciption

For all those people that want to start or to improve their knowledge about this instrument. Focusing on:

• Groove. How to be the base of the rest of the band. How to create bass lines. How to improvise. transciption

• For all levels and those people that want to learn how to write or read scores. Rythm Harmony Solfeggio To learn about the history of music.

I have composed songs for several albums in the last years, not only music, the lyrics too. I can help you in the process of creating your own music and bring your ideas to something real.

It’s never too late to learn, it’s never too late to realize those wishes that we weren’t able never to make come true. I really want to help with that because I love this wonderful art that is my profession.

All the Best,Luciano Varela
