    Thanks for the video Josh! I only played classical pieces yet, but I want to extend my repertoire with some more "modern" music. It's great to have a tutorial from you to support this journey! 😄

    I am looking forward to more tutorials like this (I mean non- classical). The Entertainer perhaps? 😊 Thank you.

    some good non classical versions could be Summertime (peterson) and Misty by Errol Garner (absolutely amazing pianist)

    Josh, do you have a suggestion for a first ragtime piece for a beginner-intermediate?

      I found “The Chrysanthemum” to be a good Joplin composition to get started on ragtime. “Sunflower Slow Drag” is also a relatively approachable piece.

      Martha Mier’ Raspberry Rag is a good starter.

      I recommend starting with his waltzes, you'll learn and get comfortable with classic Joplin left hand octaves and chords. I think good rags to start with would be pineapple rag, peacherine rag, and of course The Entertainer. I've grown to avoid the ladder because it's so overplayed and people tend to be more interested in ones they're not familiar with, but it's kinda sacrilegious to not learn it I suppose!

    I did a really “ragged” recording some 8 years ago when I was just picking up piano again after a 50 year hiatus from playing. Took me about a year to get back to playing this at a recognizable level.

      I have no ambition to play at Josh’s level - I have too many other interests, and it takes a great deal of time to maintain such a high level. I do always challenge myself to improve, but mostly I play for selfish enjoyment. 🙃

      By the way, I have purchased some of Josh’s other pro-practice products for various classical pieces. They are not only helpful, they are inspirational. While following the videos, I feel like I can do some things I didn’t think I could, once they are explained and demonstrated in detail.

      Haha this is about as adventurous outside of classical as I get. If you want more jazz, check out the interview I did with Melanie Shore on my channel awhile ago. She is brilliant
