Thanks for watching!
Beethoven just rolled over in his grave, got up, did a little dance, gave a standing ovation and laid back down.
JeremyK very interesting; but if he was deaf. How could he know his piece was played as a ragtime? 🤔
Californian Eagle 31072003 he can read the sheets, look at the notes he was playing.
But there were no sheets.
Unless he gave it to Beethoven.
The greatest musicians played by heart, not by ear or by sight my friend. Beethoven felt his craft, as does Jonny May
fur elise in ragtime kinda slaps and idk how i feel about that information
Ikr
@@please.stop.coping schut the fuck up, if it slappin, it slappin
It reminds me of an old black and white cartoon music
In certain parts it kinda sounded like the Cantina Music from Star Wars
@@please.stop.coping ok boomer
I cannot think of a better bank-heist soundtrack than the Fur Elise
I see Billy the kid sticking up the saloon for all the money to fur Elise ragtime style
I was thinking it would have fit really well in the Star Wars cantina scene

Try king of the mountain hall but it's a 6:8 jazz peace
Bahahahaha
Ragtime Clair de la Lune is like that one depressed friend who’s also the jokester of the friend group
I did not come here to be attacked
you are such a chandler
Zuckles from misfits
Stop attacking me
Well yes
3 classical themes you should never play in ragtime
*plays them in ragtime*
"You rebel you"
how else is he supposed to draw people in? clickbait ahoy
How do you make text bold
@@aname8155 to make text bold capture it with asterisks *bold*
@Red Pilled Fox how do you make it italic
@Red Pilled Fox *_thanks_*
clearly we have different definitions of "never."
Thats the point Sis, he means we should !!
@@lyviasius4354
No, shit...
it's a clickbaity word
What about the word "should"?
I know right
I don't know why but Claire De La Lune sounds like a Mario Kart song for a race😂
WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT
So tru
I like it
Yea lol
It was good but almost unrecognisable. Ragtime destroyed it, whereas Beethoven's pieces retained some of their structure and melody.
After watching this I'm pretty sure EVERY SINGLE TUNE SHOULD PLAYED IN RAGTIME
Yes. Other than clair de lune. The only one i think the original sounds better
you get it, chief. every song.
Always felt that way!!
Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement in ragtime would sound so badass
I'd love to see that
Holy guac, can you read my mind? I posted a similar thing before I even saw your comment.
@@kataraofthesouthernwatertr7090 Great minds think alike :P
@@TheSentientCloud I could not agree any less.
The left hand is already C#2... that's a bit too low i think... he'd have to play it an octave higher😋
The very fact that you made Clair de lune fun while keeping the integrity of the song is the most amazing part.
The most joyful CDL any of us will ever hear.
I'm not fond of the original piece, as it doesn't seem to go anywhere (stereotypical "boring" classical music), so this version is splendid.
FlamingCockatiel boring classical music?? you don't like the original? I feel sorry for you.
TheGreenPianist lol your here aswell
I thought the same! I really dislike the gloomyness of the song.
I wish he’d record and release all of these as full-length renditions.
Scott Joplin would be so proud of you.
Not everyone will try to play any song in ragtime, but Jonny May
JohnyK07 that was a masterful pun.
Bravo.
Ouch man, just ouch
Jonny may you stop
Why doesn’t this have more likes
Just got here... You are my hero.
Converting romantic music like clair de lune into ragtime is actually combining the best melodies with the catchiest rhythms. Absolute perfection.
IKR
I just want to let you know that Claude Debussy isn't considered to be classical but lived in the modern area starting in 1900 and not between 1700 and 1820 which is the period of the classical area
@@josy6364 Debussy's life spanned between the Romantic period as well as the 20th century. Earlier compositions were more romantic.
In my opinion, if the old Debussy (grumpy man who had few friends and extremely picky with music he actually liked) heard this, much angry words and baguettes thrown at the piano player.
@@adamh2077 yes I already saw it but thanks anyway 😉😊
No just no
Anyone come back every once in a while for the Claire de Lune? I would kill for a full version of that particular rag. It really slaps.
I WASNT EXPECTING CLAIR DE LUNE BUT THAT WAS GREAT LOL
What the hell RUclips why you suggest this.
I like it.
Nice

Correction: 3 classical themes you should ALWAYS play in Ragtime
Edit: I love how half the people who replied here took this way too seriously
PirateUnicorn you disgust me
These sound freaking awesome in Ragtime.
No, it's shouldn't play because it ruins the original forever--you can never go back after hearing it in ragtime.
Donald Dickerson the more reason we should embrace it haha
PirateUnicorn ohhh heck no
“3 classical pieces that should never be played in ragtime”
*plays them in ragtime*
You’re a mad lad.
The beauty of music is like a work of art polished and polished
What in hell??!
I am stunned..stunned is the only word that can describe how.......
.....STUNNED i am
But you're deaf!
David Pardy Music, That’s why he’s stunned!
David hes not deaf,read the captions
Hey, *you* started this with your 32nd sonata!
I don’t think Beethoven would be impressed at all
First song sounds like it belongs in the bar scene in Star Wars
Cantina Band? I had to play that so many times in middle school.
Aye name twin!
It’s the same notes as the cantina theme
"I'm jazzing it up daddio!"
Haha
IM FREE, PAPA
makes me wonder about going the other way. taking a ragtime standard and 'classicalizing' it. might be some pretty sounds.
I beg of you. Please make a longer version for each........
I Second that Motion!
Sakeios I would totally PAY for it
Hey Sakeios! Love your Vids :D how unexpected to see you here! :D have a nice day, you're awesome
Pay per view... Yes.
turn on captions
Hahaha
Well, I'll do anything a tøp loving cactus goddess tells me too...
Edit: thanks
Thank you!
Holy hell, I was laughing my ass off
Thx
It truly makes my day better seeing Jonny just having fun with what he does and just seeing him make all these crazy variations. Thanks Jonny!
These Ragtime renditions are thoroughly delightful. Shows great composition is great no matter what form it takes.
That arrangement of Debussy’s piece is just staggeringly genius. Absolutely fantastic work, man.
It would be so cool to hear moonlight sonata 3rd movement in ragtime.
Oh hey, nice username and stuff lol
more like, COOL username!!! get it? cos like water?? cool?? ice?? aMISTing i know
@@alacatooo ha... ha...
Here you go: Moonlight Sonata 3rd Movement but ragtime. ruclips.net/video/rWwkIO5VohQ/видео.html
@@pianohelper8873 omg even after one year. Tysm
"Never", you keep using this word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
“Hello, I am Inigo Montoya, you killed my father. Prepare to die!”
Love it
INCONSCHEEVABLE!!!!
Oh come on, you can't start a subtitle with "There once was a man named Claude" and not finish the limerick. Except it would have to be "There was a composer named Claude" or: There once was a man named Debussy
Whose harmonies were loosey-goosey.
But they're sure to enhance
Any faun's modern dance,
While Ravel makes him do the Watusi.
This only works if you pronounce his name the same way you'd say "Gary Busey".
ARE YOU KIDDING??? FUR ELISE WAS THE BOMB!!
Jodizzy Another excellent version is by Ethan Uslan, for a competition. In case anyone didn't know, now you do!
Edit: autocorrect changed Uslan to island. Changed it back
@@Mx-dh9ui I love that video. I've actually become slightly obsessed recently.
Who wrote the captions???? 😂😂😂 They're so good
That video is completely different without them. They're hilarious.
Thank you!
@@LilliHerveau king
On a real I would never have seen them if not for that comment, sound lad 😂
Genius are made to meet each other
Who else could put on the subtitles on a music video 🙃
I can't play piano but I understand perfectly how difficult is to perform amazingly, I think "exercise only" is not enough to achieve such level, you are gifted too.
can you imagine "La Campanella" in ragtime?¿?¿
The subtitles 😂😂😂👌👌
Fangirl :D thanks, now I've turned them on and laughing :D
Literally use to never watch subtitles and just very recently I've started watching everything with them.... Now I after this video, I WILL NEVER TURN THEM OFF.
Clair de Lune was genius!!
Nathan Beasley Agreed!!!
It hurt my soul
It was so beautiful!!!!!!!
Too bad Car Boys is not around anymore.
Thank you .... I was looking for this comment. I was too short lived for me. Wanted the whole thing in rag time.
Everyone: you should never play fur Elise In ragtime
Jonny may: are you sure about that
Whoever has written the subtitles is truly a genious.
Claire de lune was published in 1905, in the era of ragtime, so it's not impossible to imagine a young irreverent piano player doing something like that to the song. I enjoy listening to Claire de lune, but I couldn't stop smiling while you played your version.
This is probably the best video I have seen in a very long time. You are a genius and these versions are like so fucking good i can't even
The true title: "How to transform 3 Classic theme in a Cuphead soundtrack"
Being hard of hearing, I appreciate your closed-captions. Thanks.
That was incredible
That's Jonny!
Next: 3 Ragtime themes you should NEVER play in Ragtime
I'd watch that
By the way, all the last songs you played ... let's just say you should change your videos to "themes definitely should play in ragtime" ;)
I love your videos!
Absolutely love this; I always played part 'C' ragtimey whenever playing in public, but now you've raised the bar, and I will need to do entire piece in ragtime ;)
The way you defile those notes, beautiful.
This is incredible... I'm laughing so hard right now. Jonny, you have truly mastered ragtime!
Not sure what category, but Rhapsody in Blue in Ragtime would be awesome.
Gary C YES
YES
PLEASE YES.
YESSSSSS THIS PLEASE, My number one all time favorite piece of classical music!!!!!!!!!
Yes yes it would!!
Fur elise *Ragtime* sounds like a chase that just escalates in goofiness.
From a pianist to a pianist. You are awesom, spectacular touch!
Turn on the captions y'all
Thank you so much
Thanks. His storytelling is as enjoyable as his music. Lots of talent.
Jon
Thanksssss
Amazing! You should flip it the other way and do 3 ragtime greats you should never play in *insert style here*.
Night On Bare Mountain- Modest Mussorgsky. I am aware it isn't technically a piano piece but still could you imagine that in ragtime? Madness!
awesome. I had a student (college class) share this with other students. very cool. very good!!

I'm more impressed that you did it than the fact your committed classical music sacrilege.
Hey, I discovered the “true” stories of these songs. They cracked me up XD
The clair de lune ragtime was soooo pretty !
Next you should do the USSR anthem in ragtime. No joke that would actually be really catchy.
SamWallace Artisan I already have a good idea of how it may sound in my head andnit's pretty catchy indeed!
I'll take you up on that offer.

@@malloy4025 Haha,Beat me to it.
@Cameron Lee Simpson XD
Can we get a tutorial or sheet music for ragtime fur Elise because that was epic!
Try to write it down note by note from hearing. It is some work but you can do it.
For some odd reason, the transitioning part in between always makes me laugh and I love it!
Omg the "clair de lune" one made my cry😭😭 I was soo confused!!
Fun stuff. Fur Elise as a rag was done back in the '80s (if I recall correctly) as "The Furry Lisa" -- the whole piece rather than just the opening strain. There are a few performances of it on RUclips you can find. My friend Vincent Johnson has done a novelty piano version of Claire du Lune. I don't think there's a video online yet but I have recorded Squeek Steele playing it and should upload it soon. Not sure I've heard Beethoven's 5th done though. Certainly P.D.Q. Bach a.k.a. Peter Schickele did a piece that was a riff of it.
Keeper1st I knew that you would be here.
Where theres rag time, theres you
So Furries are back in the 80s? man i probably killed myself in 70's
Turn on captions
Clair de Lune done in ragtime is a disgrace and should be banned.
Thanks for sharing. I am amazed with your prowess at the piano. I am sure that you bring happiness to many, many folks with your gifts.
You can tell in his face when he plays für elise what an absolute bop it is
The closed captions on this give me life. Amazing. (Also, so fun, great concept and musicality!)
❤️
Wow. I am THOROUGHLY impressed!! 😂 honestly though... Clair de Lune is my favorite classical piece of all time, and to hear that combined with ragtime was pretty much a dream come true. Thank you!!!
I was wondering how he'd do Clair Dr lune and I must say I am pleasantly surprised
The captions are icing on the cake. Bravo and thank you! Haha, wow!
The subtitles are the best!!!
Jake.S Haha I didn't notice that!
I thought the exact same
Amazing
Ah Chris, master of memes. Seems you too have a “sophisticated” side!
Whoever wrote the captions is mad genius.
Have you ever thought about doing an entire symphony in rag?
Everytime i am so happy when you Upload a New Video 😍😍😍
OH MY GOSH. THESE SOUND AMAZING IN RAGTIME! I can see Charlie Chaplin directing a an orchestra.
With that starched shirt front rolling up like a window shade, and Doc Brown hair?
I see why people say you shouldn't. But in my personal opinion as a fan of ragtime, swing, and older jazz tunes like that AND the classics with Beethoven and Mozart being my favorite, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Positive not all can mesh it well but you certainly made it work and then some! 10/10
Love the fuhr Elise rag. Reminds me of Robin Williams's genie.
Fantasy Impromptu, if you wanna ever make a sequel to this 😁
Yessss
I was just thinking about that😁
It already exsist but not on this channel. Just search Fantaisie Impromptu Jazz
@@gwaynebrouwn844 Jazz is not ragtime though
@@DHPianist its not my fault he called his video that way
Fur elise sounds like that one song those things play in lego star wars complete saga.
YES! The Catina Band!
As someone with neither an affinity for nor an aversion to ragtime, i liked what you did there
The second song just makes me feel like i am in a casino somewehere in the kanto region
I really hope there’s more people with captions on Hhahahahahaha
A group of grave diggers decided to dig up Beethoven’s body to see if they could find anything valuable. Whenever they untied the body bag, Mr. Beethoven sat right up in his grave and started erasing his music. “Mr. Beethoven!” One of the men cried. “What are you doing?!”
“I’m decomposing.”

GJDHKHJ THIS IS POSSIBLY BOTH THE WORST AND BEST JOKE IVE EVER READ...???? IM SCREAMING.. WHAT A WILD RIDE
You, Lucianne Lea, are a godsend.
Lucianne Lea you made me spit out my drink😂 well done!
This just made my night.
I'm mad I actually laughed at this lol
This was absolutely fantastic. I’m so glad this came across my RUclips feed. You have such talent and you made me laugh.
First video I've ever seen that has a story in subtitles! AWESOME!
So: you are descendant of Debussy and you've found the real Für Elise score?? 😂
Luiz Felipe Man : Not Für Elise, Fur Elise. Covered with hair, and all that.
Luiz Felipe Man .
Kasia Wesołek oh shit, u found me here
Luiz Felipe Man 😏
I love Claire du lune as a rag!
Wow! Just wow 👏👏👏👏👏👏more please!
i love how you maintain the integrity and original sound of the pieces while converting them into ragtime, makes it so much more fun :D i LOVE the clair de lune one, it's one of my favourite pieces of music normally and sounds so weirdly good in ragtime lol
🎶Disagree! They definitely should be played in ragtime! 🎶🎆🎶🎆🎶
Totally
Agreed.
Some of these actually sound BETTER in Ragtime! XD
Sir...I just admire the way you end the performance on each piece...so classy 😂😂
The subititle is the best feature on this video
Symphony No. 5 is basically a black and white cartoon that has a villain with a mustache
Dragon Force's Through the Fire and the Flames, a true challenge for this man aye?
Can't be done
haha somehow i lost all my piano skills after watching this
Love it! Your Beethoven's Fifth has a "That's A Plenty" feel.
Genuinely made my day!
