Robert Meyer's accomplishments as a double bass player and concert artist could fill several pages, as Benjamin Britten was quoted as saying: "He has proved himself to be a considerable musician and a fine player." His career, however, extends beyond his notable achievements as a performer and includes distinctions as both an artist (he is a Chinese Watercolourist of repute) and an educator (He currently assists the Victoria Youth Orchestra, freelances in the Pacific Northwest and frequently gives solo lectures "All you ever wanted to know about the Double Bass but were afraid to ask").
