Congratulations on the new piano! This one sounds great for ragtime music, good sound quality too! A nice, lovely tune!

@@ChristinaPepper wait, this video, it sounds like you have a grand piano instead of the usual Roland, keyboard or whatever you have… I don’t know what piano that is in this video, but it sounds cool

A wonderful rendition on a great sounding piano! Ragtime Nightingale is my favorite rag, which I have played for many years. The story of how Lamb created it after studying his classically trained sister's music for Chopin's Revolutionary Etude and Ethelbert Nevin's The Nightingale shows what a genius he was. Working on your arrangement of Sogno.

Thank you! I can clearly hear the "Revolutionary Etude" inspiration but am not familiar with "The Nightingale" - I will look into that, and I'm glad you've been enjoying "Sogno" 🥰

This is great, I love that you now have a "real" piano befitting of your talents! So are you already addicted to it and have little to no desire to play the digital any more? I have to ask because I know the feeling, that's exactly what happened to me. I went about 20 years without having any piano at all when I finally acquired a Yamaha Clavinova. I plugged that through my stereo (and it cranked! 😛 ) and got down to it after that long hiatus and fully enjoyed it. But several years later in '02, I inherited my brothers' Yamaha C7 concert grand that he bought new back in '70. 30+ years of him pounding the $h!t out of that thing, it's taken a serious beating but you'll never kill it. Full length, real ivory key tops are all worn out but that's all that's wrong. I turn on the Clavinova maybe 1 or 2 times a year now and it mostly just gathers dust now ... because there is just no substitute for the real thing!!! ... even if the keys aren't as pretty as they once were (and the occasional sliced knuckle from those damn worn key fronts - yeow, lol!)!! I'm happy for you getting this!! Looking forward to great new videos. Oh yeah, great piece too, but you already knew that! 😏👍

Thank you! I've been playing on both acoustics and digitals side by side almost as long as I've been playing piano, and I like them both for different reasons. I'll definitely keep using the Roland digital in part because it was crowdfunded by a lot of my supporters, several people who commission recordings from me vastly prefer the front-view camera angle too, and sometimes I just need to be able to record without having to worry about microphones and background noise 😅. There will absolutely be more videos to come on the new piano though, especially after I get it tuned 🎶

I really love this rag because its unique in its nature because unlike the other rags, its melancholic and nocturnal. Anyways nice interpretation👍

The real trick is playing it without burning the piano - and that's why it was written by Joseph Lamb and not Charles Lamb.
