Maple Leaf Rag - Fourhand Style

[frankvdg]

meh, too messy imo

[elPacaManca]

Another ninja whistler in the background..? Damnit!

[Filipsnolips]

they have changed most of the base notes. sounds like Thomas tank engine and his friends, if anyone remember that one =D

[yungthuggydoe]

anybody know what type of neckwear the man on the left is sporting?

[Pomme843]

@yungthuggydoe A Western tie, I dare. Th'r'are vids on how to do those on YouTube

[MontanaNanaToo]

Just plain fun ... makes me happy ... that's what it's all about!

[jrbillikenbrian]

this is so cool sounding!

[joemchang]

its fun to listen to a more complicated and disastrous version than regular version, just regular one gets tossed around too much.

[jeps76113]

this is my personal opinion, but i think (let's be honest) it's awfull. It's even a shame to play it this way!! It is wayyyyyyy too fast, and there are wayyyyyyy too many notes. At some parts, you can't even recognise the music! wth?!

If this is supposed to be some kind of performance, then, yes, it is impressive; but no, it is not the maple leaf rag anymore...

[mattyb2111]

your an idiot....

[jeps76113]

thx for your useless answer!

[mattyb2111]

thx for your useless brain, :)

[jeps76113]

Haha! you're a funny guy :D

again, it is impressive, like, really impressive. However, I just don't like it, that's it!

so please respect other's opinion: I guess you think this arrangement is awesome, but i'd never tell ya you're a moron for that

[mattyb2111]

i would appreciate it if you would keep you trolling to your own videos, as that is all your comment is, and I'm afraid that is all it would ever be, so regardless of whether you like this or not, don't just troll these videos.

[MrCarrot1]

that's not trolling. go be stupid somewhere else.

[mattyb2111]

if only you would, as that is pretty stupid in itself

[jrbillikenbrian]

@mattyb2111 and you can't spell. it's "you're".

never say "your an idiot". you lose all credibility

[mattyb2111]

Hey bud, i believe you would lose all credibility by A. Deleting your comments as you have probably spelled something wrong, and B. Going off on a tangent as you no longer have any evidence to construct your case on a debate.

[jrbillikenbrian]

@mattyb2111 don't be stupid. i didn't even spell it wrong. i decided to change what i said. you're just a pseudo-intellectual piece of crap. anyways, i wasn't debating anything. i was simply stating that you shouldn't say "your an idiot."

[mattyb2111]

i think someone may have made a bit of a spelling mistake......

[joe69rocket]

great song but show the hands more! thats where the action is lol

[Stevenup7004]

So, is there any sheet music for this?

[Commentator732]

Very well arranged

[bhebrews1214]

i would love to hear how art tatum would play this song

[1230leica]

awwsommmmee!!

[Stevenup7004]

I just noticed, is someone whistling the tune at 1:57 to the left of the camera? =P

[ca11um15]

It fully sounds like it huh!?

[gizere]

haha its the certain pitch of the piano

[VladjoSK]

This is fantastic, it is sooo good to listen to tune like this when people who love to play play it.

[DangerousNez]

where r the hands ? i can see their face like monkey

[iplayragtimepiano]

where r the hands?

[solong36]

not important to the video operator ('twern't me, I was playing)

I play this often with Jonny May at DL - I will try for a shot - WITH the hands..

[senescencia]

i want to see your hands and not your faces, or both, but not this

[hibityhabity]

my favorite rag time piece.

[Lenay421]

This is great playing, i wish i could play like that....

[Ashley15136]

That was Godly..... You two are very talented. Sounds like you guys always play together!

[iCheesey]

a lot of people play piano huh?

[Morahman7vnNo2]

That Does Sound Like Something Rod Miller Would Play.

[germbag]

that is something rod miller played lol. execpt in that one you could see his HANDS!! this is boring!!

[Morahman7vnNo2]

It Is Fun To See The Hands & Hammers, But Hey If You Think This Is Boring, Just Wait Until You Try Radio.

[SnuffyWuffles]

Sorry, correction...too bad we can't see their hands for MOST of the video...I'd love to see what they're doing.

[FrosDOwnz]

@SnuffyWuffles Zoning out playing keys like mad.

[SnuffyWuffles]

Too bad we can't see their hands!!! Disappointing.

[bigbrianDASHncDOTcom]

Stan could have re-aimed the camera...but then he would have had to stopped playing LOL now THAT would have been a disappointing video ;-)

[Ogunquitboy68]

And they are not even sweating! Awesome

[danedaworld]

anyone got the sheet music for it?

[Galeonam]

i have got from bearshare :)

[connorpiano93]

I've looked EVERYWHERE

[FourFootFagott]

A definate sphincter tickler! The only thing missing is the Keystone Kops running by in the background.

[AliceAteTheCake]

Wow.

I'm beginning to change my mind about learning this piece! I thought the left hand was easier, but it still seems difficult!

[solong36]

The right side is faster and tricker but...

It is hard for a good lead player to stick to the left side and not embellish -- which if you slow the thing down causes a lot of musical "collisions"

Stan (left part)

[avilliusflaccus]

That makes sense. would of like to see the hands throughout the piece more, but it sounds great. I like the tempo too, not dull.

thanks.

[avilliusflaccus]

sounds good. Which part is harder?

[solong36]

It is a Scott Joplin composition

A Rod Miller & Alan Thompson Jr. Arrangement.

from their CD FourHandPiano - available at a website by the same name..

Stan

[theallocator]

is this a rod miller composition (4 hand)? wasn't it originally scott's?

[Antichrys]

Glad to see Rod Miller's music lives on at Coke Corner :-)...
