Summary
Edward “Eddie” Kass is a Boston-based double bassist known for his contemporary and chamber music work. Based in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, he is widely recognised for his role as bassist for Departure Duo, an innovative ensemble pairing soprano Nina Guo with double bass. Kass performs a mix of classical and modern repertoire, spanning composers from Bach to Berio, and specialises in exploring twentieth- and twenty-first-century works written for his instrument. His work has been featured in performances such as the NEC Chamber Music Gala in 2014, where he played Schubert’s Octet in F Major.
Through Departure Duo, Kass has premiered dozens of newly commissioned works, collaborating deeply with composers including Katherine Balch, Sarah Gibson, and Mikhail Johnson. The Duo earns consistent praise for intimate yet powerful performance chemistry and for the personality, virtuosity, and humour they bring to their concerts. Their international reputation includes sold-out shows at Spoleto Festival USA and appearances in Berlin, Chicago, and venues such as Yellow Barn. Kass also participates in artist-in-residence programs at leading institutions including Boston Conservatory at Berklee, Brandeis University, UC Santa Barbara, with scheduled residencies at Stanford University and Northwestern University. He and the Duo are cataloguing a vast soprano-and-bass repertoire under their “30x’30” initiative, aiming to collect thirty hours of works by 2030.
