Efficiency Rag by James Scott | Hall's original arrangement

[YPSChauhan]

Beautiful jumps at the end.....something I can't do even after reaching grade 9 :P

[Matsps]

My favourite rag of all. You have a very interesting take on this and have managed to change the rag quite a bit without affecting its high standard. Brilliant!

[30inventionman]

You did it Cory, way to go! you nailed it at the end. Good clean execution. :)

[30inventionman]

Why do you allow comments here but on Bach's work. I can't comment?

[Viliasse]

Someone know where I can get the score ?

[TheOutsidersWolfpac]

You are not Scott Hall the wrestler

[FountainofFire]

@TheOutsidersWolfpac lmao

[FountainofFire]

scott hall: "hey yo!" 

[richhead2011]

Sounds too much like the Entertainer for me. Very similar. I keep expecting him to go into that after about 30 seconds to a minute! Good playing though.

Though it is hard to really decide my favorite part, I would have to say at 2:29 I have a most syncopated chuckle of amazement.

[pumpdaddythe1st]

I meant to look up the wrestler scott hall and I got this musical art, I looked him up on the right time lol :)

i heard this song for the first time a few days ago. i thought that this was the original version. So, I listened the entire day to this beautiful performance of James Sefficiency rag. After a few days, I discovered that this isn't the original version, but... THIS IS A LOT BETTER!!! BRAVO!!! I really thank you for this, from the bottom of my heart.

3:10 - 3:40 is my favorite part. genious, really. i hope, one day i can be as good as you. You're my role model! (i've got long hair to! :D)

[LumpyZelan]

Bravo !

[Kamireru16]

i like this. it is playful and cute. i hope i can play it someday... it has a lot of sixteenth notes i guess then the speed is pretty fast. ^^ you're great! :)

[idasynco]

Your great articulation and bringing out the melodic line is what I love most about your rendition, along with the playfulness of course ;)

[ComexUndone]

[masterexploder83]

brilliant arrangement good sir!

[3DMIRROR]

Amazing! °____°

[ourDC888]

Very nice! Thank you!

[idasynco]

The tempo is purrrrfect as is the way you bring out the melody. The hand crossings are icing on the cake. I love it!! I've heard several performances of Efficiency Rag and your technical crispness adds so much! So glad you posted a rag today!!

[sathurnin1]

Superbe. Powerful and prestine. I love the way you make each note audible without scambling the sounds to much with the pedal

[sagehopper2006]

Beautiful work, my friend!!

[yellowdrinker]

So good, as always, so good; only thing that could have made it better would be to have Charlie up on his usual spot watching your hands move.

[ninjaassassin27]

ah, ragtime! the reason i subscribed to you♥ excellent, beautiful work!

[bersa888]

Always a pleasure listening to your exploration of rags.

[freescorepaul]

Beautiful arrangement & performance, as always. The cross-hand interpretation of the second/fourth section is brilliant. Love the grand swipe! :-) All the best - Paul
