Rag In D Minor

[picaoid]

Brava!

[nonamemagpie]

Thanks for the inspiration. I've played accordion for years but just started getting into doing rags. Love the challenge!

[SophiaJaneAndrews]

Great performance. I love rags in minor keys, and there aren't too many of them.

[ze590597]

You are an inspiration! Thanks for posting! Who is the composer? Thanks! - Zach

[kyjanetmusic]

You perform music in a way I love - with spirit and enthusiasm! This is superb!! Your gift is amazing =D

[tripleshakequeen]

Janet, so kind of you to comment - yep. I'm always enthusiastic when I play. Just love the instrument and my audiences.

[Inky261]

good video!

[tripleshakequeen]

Sorry - I missed your comment but just found it...glad you enjoyed it.

[shatteredivories]

FANTASTIC! What a fun song!

And, you should totally be hired for a chair commercial ;P

[tripleshakequeen]

You'd be surprised how many people have bought them since I started using mine in public.  Easy on the back too since it's a great shock absorber.

[edwinmcc]

Your music is an inspiration to me. I showed your playing to my mother. She also liked it. Thanks for sharing such inpiring videos

[malineck]

Wonderful!

Very good playing with a lot of fun :-)

I love it!!

Greetings!

[tripleshakequeen]

Really glad you liked the performance. Playing is a great joy for me - especially if my audience is having fun right along with me.

[Inky261]

good 5*

[tripleshakequeen]

Glad you enjoyed it. More coming soon.

[sallyesq]

wow, amazing! very fast fingering, it's impressive! what mid-range accordion would you recommend for a beginner looking to learn to play things like this?

[tripleshakequeen]

Thanks for you kind words. There are a lot of great accordion brands out there, and some really bad ones too. Best advice is find something in your price range that plays well, has straight keys and isn't too large or small for your body and hand size. Find the kind of sound you like (wet or dry tuning for example) and don't get too heavy to start or you won't practice enough, until you're used to it. Buy the best you can afford if you're sure you'll continue, go cheap if you're not sure.

[albertaviking]

That is just so COOL! I have the music for this but I think it would take me 3 years before I could play it like you!...ERIK

[tripleshakequeen]

Erik - I really messed up and called you a Albert on one of my comments on one of your videos. Leave it to someone from California to mistake Alberta for your name. LOL LOL So sorry! But I really thank you for watching and commenting on this video. Yes, it's a wild tune and did take a bit of practice, but keep at it...it'll come and with determination, a lot less than 3 years, I'll bet.

[westkie]

Very enjoyable indeed. You make it look easy...

[tripleshakequeen]

Thank you!  It's only easy after you start having fun with a tune and forget your fingers - just let them do their own thing. LOL

[gomode301]

i wish it was easy..

[andy1ayrshire]

Great playing and fantastic fun!!

[tripleshakequeen]

All ragtime is fun, but this is my favorite. Thanks for you good words, Andy.

[Nakas99]

~Cousin Beth

[tripleshakequeen]

Thanks a bunch, Beth. That was sweet of you both. Nice to hear from you! Golly, if it weren't for my cool relatives and close friends, nobody would be watching. LOL

[paktc]

GREAT JOB, MOM! This was wonderful and it 's one I didn't have in my collection yet.

I never get tired of hearing you play. The bouncy stool looks like enough fun to have at my computer desk too.

[tripleshakequeen]

I'm willing it to you Kid, but you'll have to kill me to get it. LOL

[auldsmithy]

Excellent stuff Sylvia, such an energetic fun performance, brilliant. I'll have on of them stools too please as I canna sit still on the ones I've got. Fae W.A.

[tripleshakequeen]

Thanks Fae! I like it so much I have 2 of them. One's in my car to take on gigs, and one's in the house for teaching or just plain fun. I have trouble sitting still when I play.

[Blaek135]

Gotta get me a bouncy stool like that! I always enjoy hearing you play and seeing you perform. I love ya girl I'm glad you are my friend. Karen

[tripleshakequeen]

You're a sweetheart, Karen. Thanks for you nice comments. Delighted you liked the video....let me know if you want a bouncy stool like mine and I'll point you in the right direction!

[graham1281]

I think it written for you personally LOL

Hi Sylvia, welcome to you tube

[tripleshakequeen]

Thanks, Graham! You were a huge help in getting me started. XOXO

[mbrusstar]

Wow, you are good, you really put life into this song- great rag!

[tripleshakequeen]

Thank you so much for the nice comment. The rag was written just for accordion and it's my favorite to play.
