Throughout the western music history, the importance of the music instrument—Double Bass can’t be over-emphasized. From Renaissance era, Baroque era, classical era to 20 century modern jazz music, this instrument has always played a very important role in music Industry. However, this instrument is not like solo instrument, like violin, always draw people’s attention. The main job for this instrument is to accompany solo instrument such as violin, piano, etc. The importance of double bass is somewhat under-estimated. Since the importance of this instrument is not so popular, the main topic of this paper is to discuss the importance of this instrument in music field. Also, I want to discuss what kind of role a bass player plays in ensemble, and hopefully more people will start to recognize the importance of double bass as a accompany instrument. Besides that, the process in teaching bass also plays an important part in this paper. I want to discuss the music education in double bass. I tried to use various elements in music in composition and playing, such as motive, form, cultural background, playing technique in my teaching. In effect, I try to use different concepts mentioned as my guidelines when I teach my bass student. The results of this new teaching method will be discussed in this paper.
