I play the double bass, electric bass, most brass instruments - with a preference for the low - and some other instruments, as well as sing (choir, รก capella and solo). I know a fair bit of music theory and arranging, as well as some musical acoustics. I have a huge crush on musical instruments in general. My main focus is jazz and related genres, but I find myself in other contexts now and then.
