Poor Freddie....

did you even practice this or did you just sit down and start reading and playing .....omg if you did dude omg omg that was sooooo fuckin awesome
-
nice job! this song is definitely on my "to do list" ;)
-
@PianoFatso I agree. Joplin generally did not put a tempo indication on his compositions. I think whether it's fast or slow - as long as it is musically pleasing is all that matters. Imagine how boring the world would be if everyone played this piece at 72bpm, or Maple Leaf Rag at 120.. :-)

Great job!
-
I see you've had a visit from the "Ragtime Police" about your playing. I would suggest you ignore them and carry on doing exactly what you're already doing which is very pleasant to listen to.

You should try to play Easy Winners, The Entertainer or Maple Leaf Rag. All great songs of Joplin !
-
Should indeed be played slower.
You're not looking at your hands at all ?! that's pretty amazing stuff right there
-
@lolforpokemon just remember not to play it too fast. no faster then about 72 bpm. its an intermezzo. gentle
-
not bad, but play it a little slower, between 65 and 72 bpm. Joplin wrote this piece for his first wife, its a slow intermezzo. sounds like youre having difficulty in the c minor section a little. keep practicing, and youll have it good



bravo
