I listen to many rags and can play a few. You did a good job my only thought is it was a bit fast . It loses nuance but I still liked your approach. I subscribed.
@@PiotrBarcz just to be clear....tonky tonk or tack pianos WERE used primarily in ragtime in saloons during the ragtime era. When I said sounds more honky tonk I was referring to the tuning of the piano not the generation 😉
@@robertfrost3388 That's a Hollywood myth, ragtime wasn't played on dilapidated old pianos because there were none at the time. Also yes I know you were referring to the tuning of the piano, but in this case this isn't really honky tonk tuning since the piano is out of tune with itself. Honky tonk tuning would be when the unisons of each note are out of tune but the piano in general sounds fine.
No, it's NOT too fast. Just because you can't play it up to speed means that those who can should not. It's dance music for two-stepping and notated in 2/4. This is just about a perfect "slow march time". (March time being 120-140 BPM.) There's a recording of this piece on UA-cam which was made in 1914 - during Joplin's lifetime. I suggest you listen to iot to hear how this music was understood in its day - before Eurocentric "classical" musicians started playing it as if it were Brahms. .
fresh alternative to Maple Leaf. I don't think I've heard this one before. Nicely played!
It does sound like maple leaf rag
It’s a great Joplin rag well played for sure. This artist should post many more I will subscribe and look listen.
Was in the film the Sting. Hamlisch got the Academy award for Joplins sublime works.
Beautiful performance!👍👍 Keep up the good work.🎼🎶🎹💯
Thanks so much!
@@steveneliya2046 It's a real pleasure.🙂 Best regards!
Maravillosa musica
I'm gladiolus to witness Mr. Eliya's talent.
Ty sir, and A+ pun right there
very good
Complimenti sei bravo, il ragtime poi...che musica!
For my taste, it was the perfect tempo. Any slower and it drags a bit. Well done.!
Agreed 100%

Nice playing as always! JUST PLEASE TUNE THE PIANO
Sounds more honky tonk out of tune
@@robertfrost3388 Honky tonk is NOT ragtime.

Going into the third movement you made about 100 mistakes, more like never ending bumnote rag :x
Let's hear you play it!
