if I heard a player piano playing study 3a, I would either 1. be expecting it to spark and fume and/or explode, or 2. think the world is ending and flying spaghetti monsters are in fact seizing all over the piano and coincidentally playing something on the demo roll of the player piano.
either way, scary, but interesting.

He's almost as fast as Art Tatum.

Nancarrow: a perfect mix of objective and subjective.

@alexandergreenb check out "Circus Galop" by Marc-Andre Hamelin on Youtube.

Are these his first recordings of the works? They sound like the original LPs and I recall the later CDs were slower and recorded with more reverb. These recordings, wherever they're from, are fantastic.

Has anyone else done pieces for player piano?

AWESOME. Icebreaker did an arrangement of Study 2B on their album Cranial Pavement, I just listened to it. SO awesome!!

Polyrhythms at its best. It couldn't be played or composed in a much better polymetric order.
is this from a CD? I love the sounds of these recordings, I'd like to buy them on CD

Hmmmm. A little jumbled up It would sound better if it was written more in order. Sounds impossible to play!
