    The cello sounds powerful and energetic, and the bass sounds so smooth and gentle, so therefore I like both.

    I have to say I think it’s mainly the style of the players that is causing that effect. The bassist is very good but he’s using about 25 percent of the power that bass has to offer, but the cellist is going all in.

    I always saw the violin family as being like dogs. The small ones (violin; like chihuahuas) are agressive, loud, and hyperactive. The medium ones (cello; like, say, golden retrievers) are also active but gentle at the same time and warm and friendly. The large ones (bass), the ones who look scariest and most intimidating, are actually the most gentle ones. Right?

    The Cello is like that cool middle aged cousin that everyone loves, and the Bass is like the old but humble grandpa that everyone also loves. I like the bass but the cello has a more resonating tone.

    This. Both are beautiful sounds, but the warm tone and fuller resonance gives a certain intense and mournful character to the cello. Sort of like the duduk’s velvety sound compared to other similar instruments. The bass was great, but the notes felt less full. They’re correct, but flatter sounding-dryer, I guess you could say. In the end, that subtlety is intentional, I believe. It’s intended purpose is usually to compliment loads of other instruments rather than solos.
