Un giorno, prima di partire per Pisa, vidi un Pianoforte, dovevo suonarlo pensai. Ed è quello che ho fatto! Spero che il risultato vi piaccia. Lo stesso video ha collezionato più di 120mila visualizzazioni su facebook
it's very impressive when played fast like that...the only negative is that we don't get to hear the full beauty of the song. but to get attention speed will always impress...this guy deserves a lot of credit to play that song so well in a crowded place like that. he was playing effortlessly great stuff!............
Hmm, I agree, and Scott Joplin had a very clear perception on that too, going so far as to have "Don't play quickly !" written on his published sheet music. Yet I guess that this idea of playing fast just became a parallel respected way to play too, like it was with classical music, and which Tom Scott himself persisted that his music was before it had been given its own genre.
It's within the best tempo for this piece, so tired of people dragging the tempo and making it sound boring. Ragtime was the kind of music to which people danced, not tea party or bedtime music...
Trasmetti perfettamente la sensazione che ti stai divertendo come un matto, possiamo pure non credere alle fate ma non possiamo negare la "magia" della musica. Grazie e auguri per il futuro!
Dude looks just like a friend I used to have in middle school who used to love to pretend to jump into moving traffic just to make people slam on their brakes... Good times.
Perché è la trentesima volta che lo guardo? Sei molto sciolto e a un tempo così alto è davvero difficile stare dietro specialmente alla mano sinistra. Davvero impressionante, sto studiando anche io questo pezzo e la tua esecuzione mi mette sempre in un mood migliore per suonarlo. Ancora complimenti
i agree with you....the speed was impressive but slowed down would bring out the song notes more....for all that work put into learning that song you might as well let the people hear every note nice and clear...
The very last strain played (repeat D strain) I love how he adds a chromatically descending part and changes the bass notes following it (apart from the original sheet music). I transcribed it and now play it like this.
Yes, but I made a mistake in my comment: it doesn't go down chromatically. (The following instructions are all eighth notes) It goes down Ab, Gb, F, Eb, and then Db, followed by *Chord 1* (Ab, Db, F), bass notes Ab, *Chord 1* again, bass notes Db, *Chord 1*, bass notes Ab, *Chord 1*, then bass notes Ab again, *Chord 2* (Eb, Ab, and C), bass notes Eb, *Chord 2*, bass notes Ab again, *Chord 2*, bass notes Eb, *Chord 2*, and then the final bass line of the original score (you know, the one with the 16th and 8th notes together?)
“Weird guy” nailed it! Joplin did say not too fast however, fast can be good as you just heard! Don’t tell me you didn’t feel it! This guy just rocked out the Maple Leaf Rag! Hands down!
Assolutamente straordinario, BRAVISSIMO! E suoni anche con una pronuncia ritmica swing, come già suonavano molti grandi pionieri di questa musica. Complimentissimi!
...véritablement heureux de constater qu'une certaine jeune génération, aussi, est capable d'apprécier et d'interpréter avec brio des airs du patrimoine musical mondial tel que celui-ci par exemple. Si ma mémoire ne me joue pas de vilain tour, le "Maple leaf rag" de Scott Joplin, doit dater de la toute fin du XIXème siècle (peut-être 1898 ou 1899), antérieur donc à Jelly Roll Morton, "l'inventeur du jazz", ou plutôt le précurseur d'une nouvelle façon de le jouer. Merci à ce jeune homme talentueux et fin connaisseur !
@@NoahHerman watch.. "How Fast Is Scott Joplin? - True ragtime speed unveiled!" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1GvivBBwrg4.html Joplin said it's to sound ragged.. that's What makes it sound fast..and all the notes crammed in.
After several hours of searching on youtube to find this video, I finally came across it! What a pleasure to listen to you again. congratulations for this performance from France
Well, I mean, it's not like watching a guy play the piano is everything there is to life, some have to work, some are meeting with a friend or a loved one, whatever. Good for the people watching him play and good for the people walking by lol.
Questo Video è leggenderio. Dopo questo la gente si ricorderà che i talenti non sono solo all'estero ma anche qui in Italia. Detto questo da Catanese ti posso dire che sei FENOMENALE!🙂❤
You can see guy in blue shirt in background smiling, thinking what an idiot, while he goes through the silent motions. Then when he plays for real, looks away.
Complimenti! Devo essere sincero, quando ho cercato ''ragtime'' su youtube l'ultima cosa che mi aspettavo era quella di vedere un video fatto da un italiano. Ma ne ero piacevolmente sorpreso. Saluti da MIlano.
Ciao, ascoltare il video mi ha strappato un sorriso perchè questo brano è stato uno dei miei primi brani "seri" che ho suonato al pianoforte, e mi divertivo davvero come un matto a suonarlo. Concordo con chi dice che sei andato un po' troppo spedito ma comunque bravissimo!
Lascia stare chi ti dice di rallentare, non dare loro retta affatto!!! Sei stato semplicemente straordinario e strepitoso in tutto e per tutto, dal tocco ai piccoli guizzi improvvisatorî (Anche Scott applicava variazioni nei suoi piano-rolls, specialmente nell'accompagnamento, facendolo, a tratti, sincopato)!!! Il Rag-Time è Rag-Time, Chopin è Chopin. Quando Scott Joplin diceva di andarci piano non intendeva di andarci lento e moderato (e poi dipende dal brano in esame, ovvio), ma di non eccedere, perché non si perda la sincope. Joplin stesso affermava che il 'Rag-Time' ha un effetto intossicante per chi l'ascolta. Parole sue. Per anni ed anni ed anni si è considerato il Rag-Time una musica tranquilla e compassata. Basta tempi oscuri. Si pensi alle incisioni di Mike Bernard, al pianoforte, autentico testimone dell'epoca. Era musica concepita sí per pianoforte, ma bisogna immaginarla pure eseguita da bande militari: un orgasmo di fiati e tamburi festanti. 'Rag' deriva dall'arabo 'Raqs', ossia 'danza'! Per cui, danziamo, danziamo!
This guy has obviously mastered the piano, it takes: An awful lot of practise, talent, devotion and commitment and for just one to give it a thumbs down, let alone 329 at this point beggars belief. They must be tone deaf, ignorant or maybe the green eyed monster is showing it's ugly head and they are only at chopsticks standard. I play trumpet to an intermediate standard and to become a true professional at your chosen instrument is tough to say the least. Ah well, banging on so I will leave it there.
@Tabourba ... a critic in every crowd. I don't play an instrument, fast or moderate, I wouldn't know what Joplin said how his ragtime is to be played, I know I enjoyed listening to this guy playing it.
@Tabourba so what, enough with that nonsense rule, if the kid likes it fast he can play however he wants. I swear to god you people really don't understand music is about expressing a person's emotions feelings, not about following strict rules.
Yes. He got faster as he went. Then it’s always kind of uncomfortable when you’re done and six people out of 200 clap. I always feel like some people are thinking stop showing off while others wish you would stop. I hate playing somewhere like that. No everybody likes piano but then again it’s there for a reason so they don’t need to sit beside it.
Some crude comments from non musicians and from musicians... to both i could say... you all blablabla... where is your video with you playing? just so to be fair... He was not there to perform... he was there waiting to catch a plane... and he had the balls to play in a busy airport...so maybe that's why he speed up... you are always in a kind of rush when you wait for your flight... even if you're there 2 hours before... but the bad commentator? balls to play publicly and without plans like this? i gues you're just a blablabla... i say well done to this guy, he played by instinct, without trying to show off... you others, would not do it, in the same situation, because it would be about showing off...but no balls to do it... P&L
the guy was great but i don't think he was thinking about catching a plane...the guy practices a lot saw a piano and thought this was the perfect time to show his skills....there's nothing wrong with that....his award was the crowd watching him i'm sure he loved that and couldn't care less about the negative responses on youtube, he's probably playing it fast like this because he knows that's the way to impress the crowd and gather attention,,,,i doubt he was in a rush to catch a plane though....he'll probably be back there in another 15minutes pulling off another ragtime song.
Hi! Eplises scattered around in a paragraph like this make it very hard to read for anyone that has some problem with reading i.e dyslexia. (And for some people who don't tbh.) If you wish for your comments to be more legible/accessible, then refraining from too many of these '...' would go a long way. Have a good day!
Great young piano player. I'm disappointed that not many people stopped to hear and watch him play. Just casually turned their heads and kept on walking.
Scusate leggo dopo un po' queste risposte . Non voglio innescare polemiche o cosa , capirai cosa me ne frega di discutere per un commento Io non intendevo il genere musicale swing ma il senso del ritmo e il modo in cui interpreta liberamente la scrittura sincopando la mano sinistra . Il senso dello swing che non si applica solo allo swing Poi possiamo stare qui a parlare per ore. Prima di correggere no? magari imparare a leggere ...
I like the man in the blue at the begining how he is like ''Look at that dude, hehe what's he doin' '' Would like to hear his thoughts when he started playing ... ''Oh well... nvm''
