  • Yum! I don't play it with as much staccato but it sounds really nice and light, really enjoying it!

  • I to have never heard a better rendition of Solace. Very nice. Very nice.

  • The moustache really adds to the authenticity. Very well played!

  • Brett,

    recently I discovered your most beautiful recording of Solace.

    Could you tell me the maker of that very piano?

    As I like your outstanding style to do this ragtime I see forward to any further ragtime you might play - probably on historic pianos - in public or record ...

    Best regards

  • LOVE IT! =)

  • I know, you also play it a bit like a Chopin polonaise. Anyway, super.

    (Janis Joplin was Scott's Great Great Grand Daughter, right?:-)

  • Loved the rubato that you used. The piece is tenderly expressive played that way.

  • Das ist ja eine schöne Überraschung!

    Und die Varianten, die Du Dir herausgenommen hast, auch... :)

    Grüßchen und ich hoffe sehr, dass ich eines Tages auch den Goblin zu meinen Favoriten hinzufügen kann.

    Bis bald,

    Lilly
