One guying freakin outperforming physics on the piano and the comment section is prasing the grooving dude in the corner.... I love it

[@TurdFergusen]

uh 1:22 does he really have a broken thumb? he must have tried to play this piece

[@martinplincoln9332]

He is Chris Dawson from Southern California

Effing insane. God I wish I could play this piece. Guy in the corner appreciates it for what it's worth!

AMAZING PIANIST ! Wow !

[@ThomasKorontai]

Fantastic! Jelly Roll Morton should so proud of you, stay where him stay.

[@therainforest4314]

I love his control over and style in the dynamics. Fantastic! :)

[@erikjansen8942]

Wow...!!! Top performance in this song... Jelly would be proud!

[@petrox41musica]

Sono veramente orgoglioso di conoscere questo giovane pianista ! Riunisce un insieme di doti, che non è facile trovare tutte assieme: è giovane, è un bel ragazzo, è simpatico ed aperto con tutti e poi...suona il pianoforte.... da paura !!!! Bravissimo Luca, che posso dirti .....di più ?????

[@9VBGI]

I just saw this guy at the Stride Summit in Boswil CH. Introduced by Rossano Sportiello, he's only 22 - and he's phenomenal.

[@savlecz1187]

Still my favorite performance of this piece.

[@ayokay123]

It's quite good, but better than Dick Hyman's?? I don't think so.

[@savlecz1187]

@@ayokay123 Dick Hyman certainly has flawless technique but Luca's performance seems way more... lively? Passionate? I can't really put it into words, but I find Luca's version way more rewatchable.

[@ayokay123]

@@savlecz1187 It seems more "lively" because he arranged to stride more and larger octaves with the left hand, which is cool. What he ISN'T doing is the offbeat rhythm with the right hand near the end of Hyman's version. Extremely difficult to do if you play piano.

[@savlecz1187]

@@ayokay123 Yeah, I agree. I came around on Hyman's version recently. But this one's still great. I keep coming back to both of them now

[@ArgoBeats]

Sure, until you listen to Dick Hyman's: an other world...

[@Yue117]

This piece is insane

[@filistro]

I don't understand that I haven't heard of you before. This piece I have heard by Dick Hyman. You Are a genius!

[@jesserussell7242]

What a great diversion from one of the greatest pianist ever live in the town.

[@iphonecharger2707]

the guy in the corner is getting it

[@Lpm100]

From 2:08, he took a lot of liberties with that piece. I don't find that in the original score

[@StrideLatinProgRick]

Wow! Bellissimo, in assoluto una delle interpretazioni migliori che io abbia mai sentito! :-)

[@タカタカホ]

貴方は正しかった。彼の右に出る者はいまのところいません

[@alexdantonyk1601]

This piece is used in a musical duel in the movie "The Legend of 1900". It's a masterpiece! Recommended! IMHO

[@charlie_charldon]

The guy grooving on the right... Finger breaker for some; neck breaker for others. 😂

[@alanbobe-velez9716]

With this piece Jelly Roll Morton showed he was familiar with Harlem stride piano. A true classic!😎

[@blancoarnau]

é fantastico! bravissimo ragazzo! bravissimo!

[@stleonm]

Jelly would be proud of you.

[@jellyrollmorton2051]

I am.

[@zzausel]

Igor Levit says he is the greatest, so I want to watch him playing this as relaxed as you. After that you may have a drink together.

[@pghagen]

The best stride pianist of this era.!!

[@melvinnixon2378]

One of the alltime best "stride" pianists is Gunnar Morten Larsen from Norway. He's incredible. This guy here did a fabulous job on the "Fingerbreaker" song and to be only 22!!

[@ArgoBeats]

Rossano Sportiello

[@KingRat355]

There are a few players way above Rossano and Gunnar IMO. You have Louis Mazetier, Dick Wellstood. Luca Filastro I'm willing to put close, I've heard what he did of Sheik of araby. Rossano is more of a Jazz player, much like Paolo Alderighi. Stephanie Trick herself is of course a splendid stride player.

[@gunnarbuster2610]

Very expressive and professional! Thank you very much!

[@guenaule]

fantastic version

The guy on the right is funny

[@juandiegoamormino6409]

xD

[@Santosificationable]

This version is actually more difficult than the original, the LH leaps are further.

[@ayokay123]

Yeah, but go and listen to Dick Hyman's version. He uses an off tempo right hand in several parts that is brain defying.

[@robertobob6574]

Favoloso, complimenti!

[@elmeshaa]

voce esta muy loco manoooo!!!

[@DaveTexas]

He might want to slow it down a bit to improve his accuracy. He seems to be sacrificing quite a bit of accuracy for the sake of speed. While his playing is certainly impressive, his performance of this piece was pretty sloppy.

[@apachindian2127]

I think saying that this performance is pretty sloppy is putting very harshly. I honestly think it sounds fine. As long as he tones down the left hand just slightly and accents the melody it's fine. But for the most part it was incredibly clear. I'm not really sure how you can call this sloppy?

[@zishankalim8098]

For the record, I do NOT play better than him, I just enjoy analyzing performers, especially if I'm practicing the same excerpt. Anyway, in the beginning, going from Bb7 to F7, he missed Eb7, he doesnt play the same bass notes and I'm not saying hes playing it wrong, he just plays his own version.

@@Poptifex Why does Allen Moon have to be able to do it better in order to say it's not that impressive? To state an opinion about the quality of an egg, do you have to be able to lay a better one?
