Start out on open D, D, E, D, G, F, D, D, E, D, A,G, D,D, High D, B, G, F, D, High C, C, A, D,E,D, D, E, D, F. I was doing that by memory so it may not be perfect. Hope this helps!

Orchestral string instruments in order of pitch (from highest to lowest) are as follows: Violin Viola Cello Double Bass So the Violin produces higher pitched notes than the Double Bass.
Double Bass
The lowest notes in the string section come from the double bass.

Double Bassists generally use bass clef. However, they do also use tenor clef and sometimes treble for notes of higher pitches.
The bass note is the lowest note played (or notated). It is typically notated using a bass clef, which looks similar to:):Bass notes are typically below middle-C. The lines on a bass clef stave stand for the notes G2, B2, D3, F3, A3. One line above the bass stave is middle-C (C4). However, double bass and bass guitar are notated an octave higher than the actual notes played. Therefore, the notes on the bass clef stave written for bass guitar are actually G1, B2, D2, F2, and A2. One line below the bass stave is E1, which is the lowest note on a standard 4-string double bass or bass guitar. A 5-string bass guitar is capable of playing as low as B0.
Because there was no other instrument that could handle notes that low, apart from the organ, until the double bass was made. It doesn't get the tune very much but it adds to the complete effect!! It also sounds nicer than the organs great whopping low notes!
No. Cello and Bass are different instruments and therefore they have their own methods of doing things. Bassists in general, for example, don't use the 3rd finger until after the octave harmonic point. The bow holds are slightly different as well. You also have to stretch further to get the same intervals between notes on the Double Bass.

Double Basses normally play in the Bass Clef. On the other hand, they sometimes use Tenor Clef and I have seen Treble clef used for higher notes but transposed an octave lower than written.
I think pretty much all of them- the viola, cello and double bass.
