Awesome!

[carlorowan]

wow, this was so relaxing

[RagtimePassion]

Oh! , this would be one of the greatest performances I ever heard among various ones of Joplin's tune... ;-) I really love this song very much, and it's a great pleasure to listen it, in this unique but wonderful play style...with Uklele!!

Heftone - thanks for the response. I never did bury my uke - I couldn't get my shovel to break through the frozen ground. Ah well . . . I guess I'll just keep playing it until the Spring thaw.

Really enjoy your Channel.

Holy crap, this is amazing! I love this song and was just exploring it on you tube. I really love Scott Joplin.  I used to play jazz guitar and I know what's involved in learning a song like this-- your recent comment seems to me to be totally understating your talent! This is a pleasure to listen to, and I look forward to more videos! :)

[haptownstudio]

Fantastic!! Your uke playing makes me dizzy. Wow! I'm curious to know about how long it takes you to learn and memorize a piece like this? While I'm waiting for a response I'll just go and bury my ukulele in the backyard.

[heftone]

Thanks. I can usually work out and memorize the arrangements in a few days, but a piece like this can take a couple months of practice to play well enough to make a video. I had this one pretty much worked up by mid-September, and practiced it through late November. I like to take it slow and easy and have fun with it.

Bravo!

[jremmers]

Lovely rendition of one of my favorite Joplin tunes. Thanks!

[mremmers]

Wonderful version of a great tune! Thanks for sharing it here.

[hoosierhiver]

Nice one Heff!

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

Fred's idea was a good one. Great arrangement, Brian.

[KYOTOZOOM]

Your plays are always given wonderful time for me.

Really, really superb. Thanks Mr,Brian.

[ukeyermind]

Beautiful music being played not far from the banks of the Red Cedar. Thanks for that one - it was great!

[josephhoh]

That is outstanding. I enjoyed that arrangement very much.

[ctrymaus]

Beautifully done!

[ddanze]

Dang fine tune for the uke, well done! Think Laibman may have subconsciously meant to sound like this but he fell for the guitar craze. Seems there's a minor uke-craze here in the DC area...now to go find one....suggestions?

[ukejon]

Lovely playing, Mr. Heffernan. I've always thought that a lot of Joplin's slower and more lyrical pieces would work well on uke but it takes a player of your abilities to make it happen.

[reyalpEleluku]

Amazing music well made on ukulele!

[UkesterBrown]

Really nice Brian....

[kendrakorshak]

Wow. Masterful playing. Really superb.

[heinbanjo12]

You have such a nice crispy tone and do play so exactly.

[thefriedishow]

Very nice! (as always ;-))

But the title..?

[wininboy]

Gee, one of my favourite rags and a wonderful rendition to boot.

You really do get the most out of that beautiful ukulele of yours.

Thanks for sharing!

[heftone]

Thanks for suggesting it.
