This is my second video here, but the first time I play ragtime - my favourite genre. The video contains just the first strain, simply because the other strains are to be learned yet. Enjoy!

Dit is mijn tweede video heer, maar de eerste keer dat ik ragtime speel - mijn favoriete genre. De video bevat alleen het eerste gedeelte, simpelweg omdat de rest nog geleerd moet worden! Veel plezier!

  • Hey, dank je voor je comment. ;)

    Misschien dat ik binnenkort nog wel eens nieuwe filmpjes ga uploaden: hier is het nog mijn oude piano en speel ik nog heel wat beroerder dan tegenwoordig. :D

  • dont listen to kungfurry, he's just bitter cause he chose the name "kungfurry" :) you sound nice :)

  • Thank you very much for your supporting comment. :)

    Regarding the way of playing, nowadays, I play ragtime in between 60-80 bpm. This movie is quite old. Soon I will upload another video.

    Besides, kungfurry, ragtime tunes were swung even in Joplin's time, and I like some of his rags when there are played that way and not like a straight ahead march; especially this rag needs some swing, I think.

see all

  • Hihi, hier word ik vrolijk van :)

  • I have been trying to learn this tune and prefer to do it a bit faster, although it's supposed to be a "slow drag." Have you listened to The pianist on the New England Ragtime Ensemble play this? He does it fairly fast. The tune is unbearably long if done slowly, I think. I just love the last strain. It sounds like a waterfall.

  • na aanleiding van jouw reactie op m'n filmpje even je video's bekeken!

    Leuk!

    Netjes gespeelt, heb zelf orgelles gedaan.

    Vriendelijke Groeten,

    Joris Jan.

  • no, you are wrong. this was probably intended to be performed somewhere in the realm of 81-92 bpm.

  • it's ragtime, not jazz. please don't swing a scott joplin tune. ever.

  • You are obviously a very good player but that was WAAAAY too fast. Slow it down and it would be really good.

  • le mani assumono posizioni assurde
