    Every moment of this was unexpected and wonderful!! I never imagined in all these years that'd we ... a) see you eating at a Texas pit BBQ, b) hear you doing Scott Joplin, c) on a Yamaha, d) wearing 'funky pants', e) playing at a Texas pit BBQ!! The only thing missing was a "Hey howdy y'all" !!! This was OUTSTANDING!!!

    What a treat hearing additional composers from your repertoire Tiff, especially in a spontaneous and organic fashion! Never imagined you playing Joplin and I loved every note. ❤

  • @denmarq
    @denmarq Місяць тому +14

    It's enjoyable to see the spontaneity of how you came up with the programme almost up until the last moment and that there was a takeaway of ideas from other people with diverse backgrounds influencing your approach. It's among what makes art alive. This vlog's full of quirky energy, and it's great to watch.
    Playing Joplin's lovely classical, ragtime pieces at that venue made me think this was a homage to a 19th century saloon. It looked so fitting. Also, seeing you sightread them motivates me to improve my own skills at that.
    PS: Just saying, you seem to have forgotten to link your KMFA interview in the description.

      I love playing Scott Joplin rags like the entertainer and maple leaf rag, fabulous pieces iam humbly speaking a self taught pianist from the age of 15yrs old iam 53yrs old now, and these pieces are still with me, but I also love playing classical pieces like Beethoven and Mozart sonatas, I recently managed to teach myself to play Mozart sonata k 331 theme and 6 variations and rondo alla turca ( menutto learning) and the k332 Mozart f major 1st movement is now played nice and fluently and 2nd and 3rd movement a bit patchy but I am pleased with my progress, music and playing the piano 🎹 is a wonderfull God given gift to have, 😃

    Wow, this vlog was amazing on so many levels! It was an absolute blast to watch. Where to start? So many performers and genres! The atmosphere was truly unlike anything in which you’ve participated. I’m so used to the classical hall venues and then to wrap my head around a Texan BBQ place! (As an aside, Texas BBQ is one of the best.) Your program was pretty incredible and your performance from the things you shared and said to the musical program itself was amazing and fun. So much high energy there and I saw the audience from young to older nodding their heads to the beat and rhythm (even a little boy waving his stuffed dog’s paw to the rhythm!) It would have been so much fun to attend. Without a doubt, just when it was unexpected, a venue held in a BBQ joint!! I thoroughly loved all of it, seeing your team, the food, the coffee, the learning, the assessment of the almost-new Yamaha and the keyboard response, sound quality to be expected, the preparation, how you decided on the actual musical program (some super fantastic Scott Joplin there), your subjective thought process…from what I could see, everyone there loved your program. This awesome blog really made my weekend!!!👏🎹🎵♥️

    I'm glad it was a good trip. I do kind of know what you mean by it being overwhelming. I was just at a work conference a few weeks ago, and it was super interesting, but I was so glad to be home. It was a cool idea to let the environment inspire your set, and it seems to have worked out well. I'm happy to see you are getting to play in less formal settings like you said you wanted to, and I do think it helps with your goal of bringing beautiful music to more people. I would bet money that someone in that room was inspired by you. Take care, and keep striving. ✨

    Looks like you had quite a bit of fun, and you went with the flow a lot!! I can imagine getting sensory overload at all the goings-on, but it seems like you were actively engaged there pretty much the whole time. your takeaways from all the other performers' sessions were surprising, but made perfect sense, especially the one about audience engagement requiring steady rhythms, and the need to fight the natural tendency to speed up. Seems like you found your voice at this unusually informal event.

    Hi Tiffany! Long time subscriber here :)
    This comment is a bit odd so my apologies for sticking my nose into none of my business land :)
    I just finished watching your vlog from 4 years ago when you were in Bologna with Maestro Voglar (you both were amazing by the way, I’d closed my eyes and listen to the short excerpts you recorded and at times it sounded like one person playing both instruments!!!)You were running late and only had ten minutes to eat breakfast. You gave us a quick look at the food assortment on your plate and then off to rehearsal you went. A short while later you complained of a headache.
    Now, a short bio. of me.I’m almost 75yo, I have type 2 diabetes , I’m a retired Medical Lab.Tech(45 years) and I’m halfway through Suzuki book one for violin (talk about Striving!). Enough about me.
    Your breakfast was out of whack. Not nearly enough Protein, Thus……Headache.
    Cheers, Russ.

      Contrapunctus II from Bach’s The Art of Fugue is also known for having a fairly swing-like rhythm, though not to the same extreme as the Beethoven passage you refer to. (I thought that pre-Baroque music was often very rhythmic and syncopated, but I’m not sure about that.)

  • @autiebleSam

    Great experience Tiffany. Maybe you could have tried some contemporary piano music, I was thinking of Chick Corea children's Song, you could had some of them easily with the sheet music, it's a bit Jazz but not so far from Schumann Kinderscenes finally. Nice adventure sharing! 🎼😇

    Rain
    a symphony orchestra
    there is a thunderstorm
    they are playing Wagner overture
    and the people leave their seats under the trees
    and run inside to the pavilion
    the women giggling, the man pretending calm
    wet cigarettes being thrown away
    Wagner plays on
    and they are all under the pavilion
    the birds even come in from trees
    and enter the pavilion
    and there is the Hungarian Rhapsody # 2 by Liszst
    and it still rains, but look
    one man sits alone in the rain listening
    the audience notices him
    they turn and look
    the orchestra goes about its business
    the man sits in the rain, listening
    there is something wrong with him,
    isn't there
    he came to hear music.
    ( I was not there but friend of mine told me about it)
