I bought Scott's book Ragtimify back in 2013 (I still have it in my Google Drive). It helped me land a job at a local piano bar, because I came up with some stride covers of a couple of pop tunes on the spot for the owner. That bar kept me afloat for probably 3 or 4 year.
If there is a piano bar that only plays Hanon Book 1 scales and arpeggios, then I’m in.
@AMTunLimited would you be able to share the book with me?
this is so cool to hear! keep playing!
@@ScottBradlee I'm really glad you got to see my comment. I might not be playing in piano bars anymore (I'm a software engineer now) but I'm certain I'm not the only person you've inspired. I don't know if it's possible for me to understand how big of an impact you've had, but hopefully you get a taste. 🤎
(Also I do still play and have a TikTok)
@@ScottBradlee would love to see what a day in the life of Scott Bradlee is like. Best regards!
Syncopation: "Just play out of sync, but make it cool" 🤣
What a treat to have such a tutorial from Scott Bradlee.
I've been playing my scales with a stride bass for over a year. It's getting better...this is the type of video that gives me inspiration.
Merci.
He's a great teacher! Ragtime seems like a super intimidating genre, but he made it easy to understand and still fun! Now let me go give it a try and see what I think... 😅
Scott is excellent at explaining what he does. However he makes it seems easier than it is
Sure. Hitting the correct notes with 2 octaves in between them in fast tempo is very difficult. Even impossible for people with small hands
I giggled with glee while watching this. A clear and straightforward explanation, and I could feel my fingers moving. I can't WAIT!
A complete ragtime course in just 8 minutes 🥰
I love playing ragtime. This inspires me to get back into it!
❤Loved the tutorial! ❤ Thank you so much Pianote and Scott!
Thank you💐 This channel helps me a lot. Please, don't stop sharing piano knowledge 🙏😊
4:33 In my mid sixties went to buy a lathe for engineering, while there was asked whether I wanted to buy a piano. Ok, both my parents were very good piano players.
I wanted to play ragtime like my father but not hard classical like my mother. First time on piano went through grade one of sons school book, next day did the second book grade.2. Went to an old piano teacher who said she never met anyone who picked it up so quick. Went to another teacher who wanted me to play at a concert which I did. After 3 months of playing started to play Lizt Hungarian Rapsody No 2 , the hardest version. Showed a concert pianist the sheet music who said that after 25yrs of playing he couldn't play that and I would end up in the looney bin trying. He was right the first 4 pages went ok but then realized the rest was too hard for me so ended up playing Rachmaninoff Prelude in C Sharp Minor which was much easier to play the whole lot. When I tried to play ragtime I was baffled to find I couldn't even play the easiest versions. Put that down to my engineering brain type restricting me to structure and conformity.
Gave up altogether as ragtime my preference, was beyond my capabilities.
Now 75yo haven't played fpr years, but after seeing this vid will give it another go.
Thanks Scott.
If only I had a piano teacher like him in second grade….
More 👏🏼
He's the coolest!
Fun!!
Thank you!
🌞👍
Definitely going to incorporate this style and approach into my practice, Thanks!
Great vid. Makes me thinking about making time to doing piano and guitar as hobby again.
Awesome 🎉
Thank you
This is such good info, thanks Scott/Pianote.
Being able to play several ragtime pieces is my dream. I only know the poor man's Entertainer and at the moment working on the easy winner...
Now I know I just have to throw my piano out because I'll never be able to do this!! :-) Just kidding - I love Scott Bradley and PMJ, and can entertain myself on the keyboard.. I can make myself think I sound great after a few beers if the accompanying MP3 is loud enough..
L o l this is nice.. That LA sound.. Orchestra and other melody
Roland Digital Grand, interesting. sound really good on my computer speakers. So, premium acoustic upright or this Roland Grand which one based on sound ?
😮
If you are a brand a new piano player
