The double bass may not be everyone’s first choice of instrument but to Eugenia, it is her passion. She studied under Wolfgang Steike, formerly of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra & currently Principal Bass of Malaysian Philharmonic & was the principal double bass of the MPYO herself for many years.
She has also played with the Asian Youth Orchestra & the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra as well as the National Symphony Orchestra of Malaysia.
Many of Eugenia’s students initially took up double bass as a second instrument & many, particularly pianists who have limited performance opportunities, continue to do so. It is much easier to master than the violin & is an instrument easily at home with jazz as well as on the classical stage.
She currently teaches double bass at UiTM as well as Bentley Music Academy.
