Tom Brier performs this brief piece from composer Joseph Northup (1905) at the 2016 Scott Joplin Ragtime Festival on June 3 in Sedalia, Mo. Video by Randy Kirby.
Only recently found out about this guy and his accident, it’s devastating, no longer being able to play like this is heartbreaking, such an amazing performance nonetheless
The knowledge, dexterity, and precision it takes to execute this adaptation of Canon Ball Rag is unparalleled to anything I have seen from a piano player. Incredible performance from Tom Brier.
This man has become a sort of hero of mine. His sight reading videos are incredible...he is an especially talented guy. So sad to hear of his accident, I will pray for him every day!!!
I am hoping he gets better enough and play's like that again. Come on Tom willing you on. Best wishes from Chester , England from an Ragtime/ Stride player. I'll never get to your standard but I'll do my best. Pete.
@@LazloNQI think I remember seeing on an update post that he was messing around with some simple left hand stuff, but it’s likely not going to advance past that :(
