A very classical rendition - I love it.

Thanks to "rtpress", I really enjoy this real Ragtimer's performance, not only her piano play, but also her love to this composition and Ragtime itself... ;-)

you judge hard, but there are different opinions from yours also.
Please permit others to like greatly such great musicality and interpretation, me included.
All the best to you

Beautifully done. I really appreciated the dynamics.

I promise I'm not one of the Scott Joplin police but this was nearly unrecognisable. Such a shame as Mimi Blais has a definite touch required to get the most out of Joplin. I think maybe I have a problem with rewriting original music rather than doing variations on a theme. Still, a good performance though and credit where credit is due.

That's so hot, it fried itself...
Joplin would roll over with this one...

C'est tellement beau, j'aime tellement cette pièce et ta façon de l'interpréter.

Amen to that. Blais is obviously a fine pianist, but in this performance, she goes way beyond embellishment to wholesale rewriting of the piece. The charming lilt of the A section is destroyed.

oh my goodness, when it started I thought, oh geez this is far slower than how I would like it, but it was spectacular performance. I could feel the sincerity in the feeling the music. Thanks for this video. This new tempo is a fantastic interpretation.

It can be found on Ted Tjaden's site. I'll send you a link.

Thanks, I've made the correction. There are actually 2 different pieces with confusingly similar title pages:
Weeping Willow-Ragtime Two Step, Scott Joplin (1903)
Weeping Willow Rag, H.A. Fischler (1911)
