This Rag is THE BOMB !!!! I'm going to see if I can arrange a theatre organ version !!
-
Very astute! Yes, Rachmaninoff's piece is "Prelude in C# Minor," but Cobb wrote "Russian Rag" in D minor.
-
@rtpress Hah. Thanks for the sheets. I love the Prelude, and I think this is most definitely a worthy rag. Well, and Wesley is great!
-
I've added a link to the sheet music in the description area. Apparently, Rachmaninoff 's only comment to Cobb upon hearing it was, "Nice rag, but you've got the wrong rhythm."
-
@C3P0meetsData I think you're right. The first note should be A, G#, C#.... But it also looks like her's playing A#, A, D. My guess is that he just wanted an easier key. :-P
-
Amazingly played...but isn't it in c-sharp minor?...It could be the recording, but i definitely heard d-minor...
-
Wow!! you Rock Wesley!! ;-)
-
You are too damned right , he is awesome
-
As Tom Warner put it once, "Wes is Awesome!!"
-
Man this kid is great. Look out Adam Swanson, you have got some stiff competition out there now:-))
Bravo! I admire anyone who can play ragtime with skill. And this young man certainly can do that. And he looks cute, too. A beautiful performance, Wesley.
