Let me be the first, Jimin Park, to congratulate you upon learning and mastering this piece, and also "Caprice Rag" and "Keep Your Temper." Your playing is clean and accurate, with not too much pedal. You choose just the right tempo, and it never drags. You generate a lot of heat! It takes courage and persistence to deal with these "Rent Party Pieces," which James P. and Willie "The Lion" Smith composed especially to TROUNCE other piano players! I note that you take them on, despite having tiny hands. What inspired you to explore Harlem Shout piano? Are you in Korea? I also play James P., with my versions of "Jingles" and "Mule Walk" and other pieces.
Thank you so much! :) I am currently working on James P. Johnson's compositions, and 'Harlem Strut' was one of it :) I would love to see your version of James P too!
На мой взгляд, сделан слишком сильный упор на техническую сторону исполнения. Это нанесло ущерб художественной стороне. Возможно, в 2004 году Jimin исполняет эту пьесу более прочувствованно.
