Just listened to this again not sure how many times now still can't get through without a smile on my face. I did frown a little when I noticed the 8 dislikes but I'm guessing it must be the hair they don't like can't possibly be the music.
I'm self taught. I started by figuring out basic chords, then creating a left hand riff and letting the right hand play melody and supporting chords. Within a month or two I was playing this kind of simplified (but fun) ragtime-inspired music. That was 25 years ago. It's really all in the ear- you gotta love it to play it.
@OrganicVeggieLoaf Glorious virtuosity! The bee's knees. Auditory bathtub gin! Perfect period recreation. Keep 'em coming. GiveUsThat old time Real Ragtime!
@OrganicVeggieLoaf You sum it up perfectly! You gotta love it to play it :D I'm self-taught in ragtime as well, but only as of 2 months ago ahahaha. Nowhere near as good as you!!!! Great performance!!!!
@OrganicVeggieLoaf could you please do a quick video showing some basic chords you use everytime?? thanks, great video by the way, I'd love to be able to play like that!
how do you get your left hand to hit all the right notes? whenever i try and play things like this i mess up most of the jumps. are there any exercizes i can do??
I am in awe of you! No, seriously, you are fantastic. I have a question (please answer!) ... how does one go about learning to play like this? I've been playing piano for a while, but can't even dream of doing this!
Awesome! I play more classical repertoire nowadays but it's the ragtime stuff that really got me to start enjoying the piano when I was first learning! Great stuff!
noooooossa, voce toca muito bem cabelo, é engraçdo ver vc tocando e balangando essa juba, vc parece que tem uma molinha no banco heim,,,,, mas, vc toca muito bem, parabens,,, perfect!
Fantastic playing that goes without saying. Don't change a thing Mark I like the look and even the singing on Hello Ma Baby in your other video. You ROCK!
If you see a five foot two.. eyes of blues.. covered in fur.. diamond rings and all those things.. bet your life it isn't her.. Five foot two, eyes of blue ohhhh what those five feet could do... HAS ANYBODY SEEEEEEN MY GAAAAAAL! Super thank you for such a beautiful piece.. That's the kind of stuff I only hear on my Jo Anne Castle records or when my grandma was still alive. Keep up the wonderful work. Your the bees knees for sure. :D
Well if I'm the bees knees then you must really be the cat's pyjamas for saying so =) Btw, Jo Anne Castle rocks- I discovered her recently here on YouTube. Thanks for the kind comments! I'll post more ragtime piano videos as soon as I get the chance.
Nice! You're in Woodland? Heck, you've got to come out to the ragtime festivals in Sutter Creek (second weekend of August) and Sacramento (weekend before Thanksgiving). And stop in at the free Ragtime Corner venue during the Sacramento Jazz Jubilee (Memorial Day weekend).
hehe nice :)
