im a 14 year old myself and started playing piano as a class just for credits at school. i fell in love with piano. i've learn fur elise, canon in d minor, and river flows in you. im so jealous of him. i havent been playing for a year, and i wanna be just like him. i'd pay to meet him!
@lakewackMom is Evan still performing 😂 I’m a little late to the party but I also travel through Charlotte often and would love to come watch, or perform with him. Sounding good!
Nimble fingers,very good technique, lovely sense of style and rhythm. Yes! There WERE a couple of rough edges, but they'll iron out with time plus your piano teachers guidance, but for all your 13 years of age, you have the makings of a young master pianist. Bravo son! Very well done You GO man, you,ve sure got a bright future ahead of you.
OH MY GOODNESS this young man is EXCEPTIONALLY talented!!!! WOW!!! I’m SUPER impressed!!! That level of skill represents MANY HOURS of practice practice PRACTICE!!! NICELY DONE!!! 👍🏻 🇨🇦
@@moonbubbles3046 I have listened to the original a number of times, in a few places it’s a tad fast and the notes are getting jumbled up. It wasn’t a critique, it just seemed like the boy was playing a tad fast in places. After you hear something quite a few times, you can hear the subtle changes.
@@lakewackoMom Hello! I might pass through CLT Sunday evening. Otherwise next stop in CLT will be Tuesday, July 2nd. Hope everything is well and hopefully see you guys soon! 😊
Hey there! I’m a 12 year old and Ive been playing piano for 3 years. I’m half way through this song and I recommend that you slow down a bit! If you play too fast it will sound a bit messy. You have a lot of talent and take that for granted! Have a good day!
FINALLY, I find a video of someone playing MY arrangement of this piece. Yes, I'M the one who implemented that key change, and I can confirm that it makes the song considerably harder. Very impressive!! Also, for those of you wanting to get your hands on the sheet music, they're right here: www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/root-beer-rag-digital-sheet-music/21431672
Here's the sheet music: www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/root-beer-rag-digital-sheet-music/21431672 And yes, I'm the one who arranged this. It's already my 2nd most popular piece I've sold on the website.
nice applause ...ic bacon .... my mum plays that song on the harp same thing as a piano just upright and strings.... u could put something out 4 tips maybe donate some of the money
@lukewackomom he's too talented for that show. Despite the minor errors .Dont do it. He's as fast as Billy in his younger days, you should comtact him.
What pisses me off is all of the people not even acknowledging this. I'm a pianist. We're doing something 99.9999999999999999% of the human population can't do.
When he gets to high school, have him join the jazz band. He will have a ton of fun there, especially during soloing opportunities!
You are absolutely GREAT! It's so nice to see kids with real talent! I also love your rendition of "The Entertainer"! Keep up the great work!

Traveled through Charlotte many times. Wish I had been there for his performance!!
Hi Ken. Evan usually plays on Saturday or Sunday afternoons.
@@lakewackoMom I'll look for him next time I pass through and hope it's a weekend.
@lakewackMom is Evan still performing 😂 I’m a little late to the party but I also travel through Charlotte often and would love to come watch, or perform with him. Sounding good!
Did you just go from C to D flat? Props to doing that, you're gonna be awesome!
Absolute pure talent mate 👏 New Billy Joel
I admire your work a lot, it shows that you have great talent. Keep it up. Greetings from Chile!
Hi Juan. Thanks so much for writing!
I love the key shift halfway through the piece!
Wow! Great job. I have never heard of this piece by Billy Joel.
Wow, those fingers and keys fly so fast I can't even follow them with my eyes. And I like the fried egg socks too!

You GO man, you,ve sure got a bright future ahead of you.
AWESOME young man! :)
Thank-you for making, & sharing this! :)
YOU are CERTAINLY VERY TALENTED! :)
Whoa! Key change! Even Billy doesn't do that!
Absolutely amazing 👏👏👍👌😍🙋♂️
Thanks Gary!
Браво,голям музикант !!! Пожелавам му много здраве и успехи !!!!!

Only advice, slow down! You have a lot of talent
This is the tempo of the song.
@@moonbubbles3046 I have listened to the original a number of times, in a few places it’s a tad fast and the notes are getting jumbled up. It wasn’t a critique, it just seemed like the boy was playing a tad fast in places. After you hear something quite a few times, you can hear the subtle changes.
He’s playing it the right tempo.
That's how it's written and how Billy plays it.
@@bigredfreak2 agreed
I'm lost for words!!! How long did it take you to learn that!!!! Fabulous fantastic!!!!! Greetings and much appreciation from UK.
Wow, thanks for writing! I think it's hotter in the UK now than it is here in NC! Evan took a couple of weeks to work this one out.
@@lakewackoMom the extra week was when he decided to shake it up and go up that half step lol. Bravo
Evan, was a pleasure meeting you and your Mom my friend at CLT airport. Keep up the great work! - Moon
Hi Moon. When are you in Charlotte next? Evan is playing tomorrow; Sunday!
@@lakewackoMom Hello! I might pass through CLT Sunday evening. Otherwise next stop in CLT will be Tuesday, July 2nd. Hope everything is well and hopefully see you guys soon! 😊
@@lakewackoMom if I do come to CLT Sunday, I'll stop by for sure!
Very good. Thank you.
If I see someone playing this out in the wild it's an instant $100 bill!
I'm 13 and working on this now. Getting there
Brandon Rein goodluck!
Good luck. My arrangement is a little harder than most.

Great Job Evan Would you like to be in my Piano Contest?
nice
Half step up key change nice touch..... Tighten up. Well done
This kid’s insane
A modulation in the midst! Very difficult (at least it would be for me!)
I’m 41 and just learned this and this kid makes me look like an amateur lol. I still have fun though
Being able to play this song is a feat itself! I wish I could play this
Slow down. It’s not about how fast you play it
FINALLY, I find a video of someone playing MY arrangement of this piece. Yes, I'M the one who implemented that key change, and I can confirm that it makes the song considerably harder.

Hey nice!
@@JJRicks I'm definitely happy it's getting the appreciation that it has, especially since it actually sounds like a rag.
So talented
Thank you Paul
Keyboard players never get the credit. Guitar and vocal in the front and keyboard sitting out back with the real talent.

WOW, this is amazing. How did you learn this piece? Sheet music?
Here's the sheet music: www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/root-beer-rag-digital-sheet-music/21431672
And yes, I'm the one who arranged this. It's already my 2nd most popular piece I've sold on the website.
Would you like to be in my piano Contest?
Who are the 14 clowns that would give this a thumbs down??
Mushy
Wow just wow
Alternate title, fingers have seizure and so does the tempo

Slow down you crazy child........
Almost better than Billy could play this today
Gregory Gingras almost...
I wouldn't go that far. Very impressive though.
Veery nice 😀😀😀😀.
If u can, so please play song: scott joplin: entertiner
🤗
Evan always starts his shift with The Entertainer. I will have to add this one to youtube!
nice applause ...ic bacon .... my mum plays that song on the harp same thing as a piano just upright and strings.... u could put something out 4 tips maybe donate some of the money
Too fast.
Too fast
have we considered America's Got Talent yet? suggestion look up and smile sometimes
Thanks Donald. Good suggestions...I will share this with Evan.

To fast please play slower than its so mutch more beautiful
Sounds messy
how well can you play that same piece
Yea ok,thanks Simon.
@@incrediblesulk555 bruh I commented that 5 years ago 💀
Slow down!
You're good kid, but work on your tempo and timeing.
slow down enjoy the song sounds terrible like this
Get a metronome
Much too fast causing timing out completely
( ･ω･)ﾉ 後半下手になってない？
He's trying to play a little too fast and he's not quite got the rhythm
He is playing it too fast and out of time
Plays toooooooo fast
