Remember, the range he noted here is a general range. The lowest note is set as it's always our lowest string, but the upper one, that depends on your instrument... and your intonation!
I play first violin in an orchestra and I sometimes wish we had another clef for notes in the nosebleed seats, 7+ leger lines and 8va (play the notes up an octave) are no joke! š

Nitpick: Bass is from the viol, not violin family. Fourths vs fifths in tuning is one difference. They also have structural/design differences in that violin family instruments have body shapes that meet the neck at a perpendicular angle while viols like the bass have bodies that swoop up the neck, not to mention have canted backs.

I played the Double Bass for about 6 years. Iām only 5 feet tall, but as a kid I just gravitated towards it. Thereās nothing quite like playing this instrument with such low vibrations. Felt very therapeutic!
There were a lot of times that a bass part was ādouble the cellosā or the teacher would write a part specifically for the bass section because one did not previously exist. I loved every second of being a part of the violin family.

Good summary!
7:02 ā Some would argue that the double bass, and piccolo (the usual piccolo at least), for example, arenāt truly ātransposingā instruments, on the grounds that true-transposing instruments change not just pitch, but pitch class , such a notated C sounding Bb or F.
I personally am not sure I agree, but I do agree that thatās an important distinction, so I wish we had two different words for the two concepts.
