Topic: Pleasant Moments, Joplin, Rag Time Waltz

Dear listeners! If you ask if it feels a bit problematic to play - I say no, it’s just me playing a bit like Joplin plays on his own 1916 piano roll of his great 1909 ragtime waltz composition, Pleasant Moments (listened on yt). And I love the ending of this piece.
Altough I had fun recording this, putting a bit of my own style on it, too, I know it’s not worth making a CD on it     ,
After all, it's just a version of an old pianoteqenthusiast, amateur, playing it.

Hope you enjoy,

Stig

Stig, you're hard with yourself.

I enjoyed this piece. You're not 100% straight, but when I listened to you, many pictures came in my mind. That's a really good point and it suits well to these very old movies we see sometimes. Moreover, I wish I could play your organ pieces your way. Keep playing

Will
