As I say all the time you have a very special talent never be discouraged. What we all have to remember is how young you are and the exceptional gift you have. See yourself in 10 years. Never let anyone make you feel less than who you are. God bless you
@@Martin-lz4sy No I thought maybe the metronome cover was making the buzzing sound in my last video so I tried to move it. I am not good at using a metronome but I am sure I will learn soon
A little quick but asides from that it was all great. I used to play this one quite a bit. Your recordings of Joplins rags are some of my favourites. I enjoy them more than most I’ve heard
What fun! When I was your age (wow, 50+ years ago now), my family used to love going to Shakey’s Pizza Parlor on Saturday nights. In those days they used to have coin-op paper-roll player pianos, but on Saturdays they had a live performer - straw hat, barbershop shirt, black bow tie and sleeve garters - who’d rock the heck out of the place with RAGTIME. I fell in love with Scott Joplin’s music way back then, and I still have a few pieces on my driving playlist on my iPhone today (interspersed with everything from Glenn Miller to Johnny Cash to AC⚡️DC to the Bee Gees). Good music, happy times! Thank you for bringing back the wonderful memories.
Hi Leander!!! Your music, your playing makes me happy!!!! Your smile, your words - shows your great interst and fun of playing and making music!! Your playing is eminent - your teqnique is suberb!!! My best wishes to you!! Go on!!!! 😀😇😀
I would love to know the secret of how this young man learns and stores a seemingly endless stock of music which he can effortlessly play with his endearing brand of cheerfulness and assuredness.
I love it whenever you look into the camera and smile. You are so talented and such a joy to watch and listen to. Thank you so much for all your videos and brightening my day!!!
Another terrific performance. It really tickles me when at the end of every piece you immediately put your arms back and place your hands on the seat. That's part of your unique delivery. 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧😀❤
Hello Leander, you make so many people happy including me when you play your Rag timepieces. It sounds and looks like Magic. When I was young I could learn a piece of music if I listened to the record a couple of times then I would have the melody. The rest was up to me to put the chords in there. Well here you are very quick at learning pieces of music so Brilliantly fast and they all have great rhythms to them as if you have a metronome built into your piano. I'd say that was a magical few moments till the end. BRAVO Leander keep practicing and doing a fantastic job. Your teacher must be as proud of your accomplishments as your parents. Keep up the great work. I'll be tuning in from time to time and see you in another video.😊😊😊Have a great day it looks nice and warm outside there.
This is a good celebration song for today! My eye surgery went well, and even though I still have no vision in my right eye, it should return gradually over the next few weeks or months. Thank you for being part of my celebration, Leander. You're the best!
I've known others in the past who have progressed this quickly at such an early age within the ragtime world. Adam Swanson is the obvious example. PLEASE get him a better piano as soon as possible. This piano is teaching some bad habits that could go away with a much better instrument. Now is the time to give him the best environment as he progresses so quickly.
That cheeky grin gets me evry time. I want to grab you and give you a big hug.
Great job, as always, Leander! Watching you having so much fun playing is almost as much fun as hearing the music!
Eeeey look who's here! :D
@ Hi Piotr!
That was so exciting Leander…when is the Christmas Album coming out?…we all want signed copies.
As I say all the time you have a very special talent never be discouraged. What we all have to remember is how young you are and the exceptional gift you have. See yourself in 10 years. Never let anyone make you feel less than who you are. God bless you
Your smile makes my day!!!
I wish I could play like you ❤
I just LOVE your smiles!
I think if you practice you can.
Thank you for telling me
Merveilleux
Great job holding the tempo, Leander!
Maybe he practiced using that metronome...at least it's lid is half open :D
(I was afraid it could fall down and knock that nice bust over...)
@@Martin-lz4sy No I thought maybe the metronome cover was making the buzzing sound in my last video so I tried to move it.
I am not good at using a metronome but I am sure I will learn soon
@@Leander-piano just be sure the metronome is level -- otherwise it gives a jazzy dotted rhythm (sometimes fun to play with if you set it right ...)
Hadn't heard it before. Nice! Thanks, Leander.
Amazing playing piano and all without sheet music. That’s a great gift you possess. ⭐️👍👏👏👏👏⭐️👋👋👋👋
You and your music are always a bright spot in my day. Thank you.
I just listened to some other versions of this. I love your tempo, Leander!
Thank you for saying that.
I am glad you liked the tempo.
A little quick but asides from that it was all great. I used to play this one quite a bit. Your recordings of Joplins rags are some of my favourites. I enjoy them more than most I’ve heard
Leander doing what he does best on the piano lol😊😊
That used to be a Riverboat Calliope favorite --- You're right on the top ! -- Nice Job, Sweetheart ! ❤

Your name Leander has a Greek origin with the meaning "lion man". Every time you play the piano, it roars! 🦁🎹 Thanks again!
That was excellent and such fun!

Es impresionante cómo te suenan los sonidos de la mano izquierda con los de la mano derecha: los combinas rozando la perfección... ¡Bravo!
When you smile, I have to smile too! Thank you for sharing your talent and joy!❤
My favorite type of music played by my favorite musician 😊. You are a musical genius, you know that? ❤
👍🤩 j’aime voir ta joie et ton plaisir lorsque tu joues du Rag 😍🥰❤️
Wonderful
Amazing ragtime work, Leander! Bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻🎹
Bravo, Leander! Thank you again for playing Scott Joplin so wonderfully!
Thank you that was great and Hey i like the shirt.
Beautiful ❤❤❤❤
you gave this tune a Joplin credit. and then some .
How do you memorize 10, 000 notes and smile too? You make me really appreciate this genre of music. Happy to have you set the standard!🎉😊
C EST UNE MERVEILLE MERCI AUX PARENTS POUR NOUS AVOIR FAIT DON DE CE PETIT GENIE . FABRICE
Super as always 👍🏻

I am really happy that your surgery went well and that your eye is going to get better.
Thank you for telling me.
Thank you. Very well done. Ragtime and boogie rule
Great job! It it so much fun to watch to you! 😊
Thank you, Leander! I always enjoy your videos.
Bravo Leander! 👏👏👏 You played this piece super well! And the music is beautiful! Thank you!🌺🌷🌹💐🪻🪷🌺
Amazing! And you play all with no music in front of you. Keep up the good work!
Wow! Amazing!
Thank you!
Awesome as always my friend!! 😁😎
Well done! 👍
You are awesome buddy!
That was fun! I'm looking forward to hearing you play after the technician works on the piano!
Love your rags! You play them so well! How long does it take for you to learn one?
You look like you genuinely enjoyed that one!
Incredible presentation! The smile says it all. Have you made any of your own pop song arrangements in ragtime like James May has done?
How do you learn all these songs so quickly? You are amazing!
CAN YOU DO A VIDEO TELLING HOW YOU LEARN THESE MANY SONGS? DO YOU READ NOTES OR JUST HEAR AND PLAY? WHATEVER YOU DO ITS AMAZING!!
Great as always Leander, do you play by ear to learn new tunes?
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Ideal positions for pianos are inside walls. Keep away from windows and outside walls. It will keep them in tune longer.

I feel "The Entertainer" could be coming soon .....
I've known others in the past who have progressed this quickly at such an early age within the ragtime world. Adam Swanson is the obvious example. PLEASE get him a better piano as soon as possible. This piano is teaching some bad habits that could go away with a much better instrument. Now is the time to give him the best environment as he progresses so quickly.
These bad habits won't go away with a better piano. The whole new technique is needed. I am sure things will be done to get this.
why dont you find out how much it would cost to have that broken key fixed and I will help to raise the money to get it done
Keep in mind to fix that key!
Reincarnation right before your eyes...this doesn't just happen every day...and no pedals... more to come😊
