Welcome to the highest quality Ragtime Piano / Stride Piano & Jazz Piano Synthesia channel on RU-vid. On this channel I will primarily post Synthesia videos from modern to the roots of jazz music. Documentaries and other music related content will be posted every now and then as well.
As some of you might have already seen I have also uploaded some A.I. videos created with a software program named Concert Creator A.I. Unfortunately the company shutdown their service so there won't be new A.I. anytime soon but luckily I was able to create some cool videos.
About me: I am a Software Engineering student and Jazz piano player 🎹. Lately I have been learning more and more about Artificial Intelligence and am planning to release some tools of my own.
@@itsRemcoWhy is it that copyright blocks are only applied when it’s a recording of an African-American? When my 1930s compilation was blocked, all 6 songs that were blocked in it were from black artists.
@@GLepRagtimeChronicle They want to steal from us once more 😂 Jk, I think it depends on the audio quality. The better, the bigger the chance of being copyrighted
I used to comment all the time on these. I am getting back into piano! Thank you for these wonderful videos :) I've completed high school now and I'm listening to this during the summer while studying for my drivers license. Please have a wonderful day! ദ്ദി(ᵔᗜᵔ) These videos make me so happy
Do you know the Japanese pianist "Keito Saito"?(斎藤圭土) Give it a listen because I think you'll like it too! (This article was written using the translation function.)
You always seem to upload pieces as I'm learning them, very strange coincidence. I'm surprised it took this long for this one to be uploaded, one of the greatest rags of all time easily.
Sounds really awful! Compared to humans, otherwise, really not so bad. Lacking emotional variability & feeling though for sure still. Makes me a lil sick feeling, like having a canned drumbeat on loop, it’s hard to get away from the missing humanity. Headache worthy for longer durations I’d say. Maybe it’s just me? Perhaps there’s medication for my syndrome. 😕
I’d like to know about the appropriate tempi for Joplin’s rags. Did he suggest these himself at all? My guess is that they’re generally played too fast today?
@@MichaelCWBell That's an interesting debate, his sheet music states "Don't play too fast". But "fast" is very subjective as today's music is very much different.
Joplin’s rags are accessible to pianists of an intermediate ability and possess a wonderful joy. It was a revelation to me as a teenager learning that he was African-American. It’s like the penny dropped. Thinking as I did that he was white (yes, it does matter for many questions of association and musicality) I wanted to see a picture of this “white man” because I felt it had something special and free. It wasn’t like Felix Arndt or others. I was so pleased to learn about him but also saddened by his terrible later life and illness. Since that time I’ve heard pianists like Monk and Oscar Peterson that have flabbergasted me in their musical invention and integrity. If only Joplin could know of his importance today. Perhaps he did know- I hope so! Thanks for this great video⭐️🌴
Nate's 78's has a video of this roll, but he says it is played by Sid Laney ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0D2nCpKMDpw.htmlsi=BrEGFfn0eHeMe82U
