If you're going to break music down to pure terms and technical devisions, then all you're succeeding in doing, Alajandrogaby, is destroying what music is supposed to do and be.
Okay, so it doesn't conform to Ragtime rules, so what? It sounds great, and people enjoy it. How could you possibly fault it??

Beautifully played and interpreted regardless of what the ragtime police have to say.
-
It's perfect.
-
Again, i am back to John Arpin's music. OMY, i am just so in-love with this again! I couldn't be any happier!
-
@Alejandrogaby Non-conformance to ragtime nuances, this may be. But it won't stop me from enjoying it! Although after several times listening, the inconstant temple does get to me a little.

Something he clearly enjoyed - he had a touch and nuance for the keys. Technology rocks for being able to save his talent for us. Thanks for posting.

oh God how i love ragtime! :)
-
What a beautiful interpretation and control of dynamics.
-
This a fine pianist ....He has a true understanding of style and performance ..... no amateur here....

What IS all this? It conforms perfectly to ragtime 'rules'. It's ragged time. Period. What other 'rules' are there? Joplin's "Ragtime must be played slowly?" Well, this is slow. It's not typical, but a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.

putrid11 & aardvaark069: Mr. Arpin knew most of the important ragtime and jazz figures including Mr. Lamb. You probably haven't seen the enthusiasm on the face of Patricia, J. Lamb's daughter who just simply loved Arpin's playing. Music (ragtime included) is not something that HAS TO BE PLAYED this or that way. It ain't music then. You surely never met John Arpin and never talked to him about music and life. His playing reflects his personality. He exactly knew what style and music is about.
