Performed in May, 2017 during the Preliminary Round of the World Championship Old-Time Piano Playing Contest, held every Memorial Day Weekend in Oxford, MS. Jimin finished in 2nd place.
So many artists still do cover versions of this song over a hundred years after it was written. I wonder how many songs popular today will still be remembered a hundred years from now?
My god, she's wonderful ! She dominates classic and has the power of swing jazz. Mind the cleaness of her stride technique, fast or slower with all the right-hand embelishments, blues-scale turns and full-chord rolls. The song is famous and amazing, excelent choice ! Congrats, lady ! Greetings from Brazil.
Kaded I hate to assume that you are talking about me, but Jimin and I were the only ones to play this particular piece for the 2017 contest. However, I was the junior division champion because I was only 17 years old at the time. She placed 2nd in the Adult division. So I will have to agree that she played it much better than I did. Haha 🤣
I LOVE your style! I do play some piano, but I've decided that I want to play exactly like you do when I grow up! Of course, I'm 72, so I better get with it here....
@@MrCrowebobby This is functional music that should be played in live music venues regularly, but again as i said, the generation Y and Z live inside the internet dumbphone screen, they don't know what social evenings out are.
@@MrCrowebobby Really ? I haven't asked them personally but i suspect they've not been exposed to live music with real instruments. They're used to iphone highly computerized sounds like ringtones.
This is so great! I'm so happy to be a Jimin Park fan! Real good swing feel, totally clean and precise. Lots of soul and fun spirit! Just right! Cool left hand! Lightning right hand runs and licks!
I’m amazed at her piano playing. No music, playing and looking around. Absolutely brilliant and so wonderful to watch. She became the winner in my eyes. Magnificent. 😊
. WOW!!!!!!! She is PHENOMENAL!!!!! BRILLIANT!!!!! PERFECTION!!!!! ✨🎹🏆❤🎵💚💙⭐⭐💥💥💥🎇🎆🎉🎉 She probably composed the arrangement herself, too. She is so Brilliant!!!! ⭐💥🎹🌹🌺💐💐🌻 .
She has a piano practice video, when she came to this contest. It's in the hotel lobby w a vertical piano and, I think it sound better of this. I can't find that version, video is not more, but I keep trying. Sorry for my English
Just love the way artistes from East Asia have taken on the Western musical canon (Modern and Classical) and made it their own. Jimin, Yuja, Yoyo, National U of Taiwan chorus, Sumi, etc. Dennis Prager said in interview recently: 'If you want to hear the best Bach, go to Japan'.
Well, this is nothing new. East Asia has a great ability to emulate and absorb reputable skills or technology, but it's creating them in the first place that is the hardest. Copying is a form of compliment between civilizations.
It is just amazing how the last 3 minutes can play so hard on the keys and then go soft and then up and then the end. I wonder how many years she practiced on the piano.this song is the greatest on piano. I think it is better than Liberace. Just my opinion
I wish to play one this day. You, you beautiful soul, inspire me to play and get better and just be an overall person in life! You bring tears to my eyes, tears of joy!
