@pianoman891 Hi congratulations for this version ! As you say many people want to play this ragtime too fast and loose the inertia and body of the piece. You play it at the perfect tempo and this without accompaniment. Great job. Your left hand at the end is perfectly integrated. Just what Billie Joel should have played if not doubled with an organ on stage ;-)) Looking fwd to seeing your next vids.
-
you play really cool! my dream is to play this song in piano one day, i am an intermediate level :)
-
Man! This was perfect!!
Have not seen anyone play it more precisely than you do. Great speed, not too slow/fast and not sloppy at all, like most other versions.
Congrats :)
-
I think this is the best I've ever seen anyone play this besides Billy Joel himself.
-
whats your technique for the first part? just hitting the c g c as fast as you can?
-
this was fucking amazing. best one on youtube by far.
-
learning this at the moment, its really good but the speed is killing me. my wrists just tense up. great job though hopefully ill get it sounding this good.

@flobb3 Well, you can't just assume someone's gay by their performance. And even IF he's gay, so what? This is still a great performance and it shouldn't matter whether he's gay or not.

nice but he's gay

Nice perfomance !!!!
Could you send me the score of your version ?
Thanks,
Victor

@VictorCHCH Sorry Victor, I have no score of my version. My embellishments are relatively simple though, harmonically speaking. I use alternating octaves on the left hand and then move on to more of a ragtime feel with octaves followed by a triad.
I hope that helps.
