Some of the most influential contemporary classical double bass players are known as much for their contributions to pedagogy as for their performing skills, such as US bassist [[Oscar G. Zimmerman]] (1910–1987), known for his teaching at the [[Eastman School of Music]] and, for 44 summers at the [[Interlochen]] National Music Camp in [[Michigan]] and French bassist [[François Rabbath]] (b. 1931) who developed a new bass method that divided the entire fingerboard into six positions. Bassists noted for their virtuoso solo skills include American pedagogue and performer [[Gary Karr]] (b. 1941), Finnish composer [[Teppo Hauta-aho]] (b. 1941), Italian composer Fernando Grillo, and US player-composer Edgar Meyer.
