Toccata and Fugue by Stuart Jones

[dnrongo]

if people deserved a very nice piano it would be you. too many rich people who own grand pianos without proper use

[DanCerBoyTck]

WTF?

[brillemmarocks]

[Pottydzmeia]

[kapepii1009]

very stylistic :) i kinda gave up hope on learning it now lol

[lty2k84]

This is great. A true artist. Love it!!!!!

[calvinkh]

I would like to hear this guy plays some real original classical music without any alteration to jazz or blues style.

[Kailoa36]

I'm not a purist, however, I much prefer version 1 by J.S. Bach.

[skiller0121]

yo even if u think there pointless he is still a gr8 piano player, u see the smile he has on his face well thts cuz he isent playing tht cuz he has to hes playing it cuz he wants to and enjoys it he is a gr8 piano player relii my idol

keep playing m8 from alex avery

[Apocalypticafan1992]

everybody will kill me for this but some parts just seem pointless improvisation. i think i just heard about half the original and most the song were just pontles arpegio banging or something. andre stamme is the real deal. no clownin around like this

[annielennox187]

You need to ask yourself why you are leaving negative vibes amongst

hundreds of thousands of positive. If this is music that you don't

understand or is not your taste, then you should simply say this. Otherwise

people might say that your work is pointless. If 285000 people are enjoying

it there is quite obviously a point/ We notice you have none of your own

playing up for us to see. Constructive criticism is excellent, flippant

negativity is worth nothing.

[annielennox187]

These lads are well liked!!!!

[stux007]

They're called block-chord paradiddles, not arpeggio banging. Those sections are labelled sforzando and that's how he is playing them. That was a very strange link you sent us to????????

[martyktho]

you don't mess with tocata and fuege . that was the cheesiest thing i have ever heard.

[stux007]

Can we see your playing please, 280,0000 people want to judge it

[ShaiMyst]

do u know how many ppl have "messed with it" as you say and other classical pieces? Its something called expression. I am sure you are familiar with the word and its definition.

I understand you might not agree with it. Say that. Don't berate something if its not wrong, not cause its simply not in your view what is done

[kmrtn6]

fab as usual stu - brings back memories round the sutton jam's

[asadik123]

Baroque & Roll !!!

Great!

[unavailable90210]

Wow... THAT IS SO COOOOOL!!!!! Now that is what piano should be all about! Just having fun creating music in your own way! By the way what is it that you are playing in the right hand from 1:02 to 1:06? It sounds beautiful but I can't figure what it is exactly and i would really like to know! Keep making music!!

[kucko88888888]

i dont have words, this is art..your own art....magnificent

[hatstalker]

[bobbymarywalsh]

tis classical music ur playing not jazz!!!!!!!!i didnt like it at all !!sory

[stux007]

Thanks for your interest. For musicians there are no titles in music. Music is just notes going up and down in various rhythms. It's only the marketing industry that uses catagories like classical, jazz, baroque, drum n bass etc. Please check out Stuart's 'Symphony in F' and his releases on 'Deuthche Grammophon' chart entry no. 8.

[skotoseme]

I think genres are often useless or misapplied - the term IDM ("intelligent" dance music), for instance, causes me to vomit blood, and I even like some of the artists who are so categorized. Still, even Frank Zappa, who wrote in many styles and seemed to hate everything about the music industry, begrudgingly admitted that genres do exist, though he was quick to add there's no reason they can't be mixed, like in this video.

[symetrixitcorp]

Classical version is here for 300yrs - you have plenty of versions suitable for you.

Questa è robazza. Fa schifo vedere che c'è gentaglia che offende con simile immondizia il nome del grande Bach. SMETTILA DI POSTARE SCHIFEZZE.

[GuardianVardar]

Just loosen up, be tolerant. Besides this guy is pure talent and no one can deny it, personally I *love* what he did.

[sweetestmocha]
