  • Ryder taught himself how to play Scott Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag" when he was 10 yrs. old and fulfilled a year-long dream by playing the Ragtime Piano on Main Street at Disneyland before he turned 12. #Shorts #disneyland #kidmusician #mapleleafrag #scottjoplin #yamahapiano #yamahamusiccorporation

      Presumably because you don’t focus on one instrument. Maple leaf rag is tough, but if he is playing better than you then I highly doubt what you’re saying is true. His playing is okay at most.

      @RyderPlaysMusic  9 месяцев назад +40

      (Ryder’s Dad) Keys isn’t the only instrument he plays…nor is it the primary instrument he plays. He learned to play Maple Leaf Rag in its entirety on his own, without a piano teacher. He was invited as a guest by a rep from major keyboard company to play as a guest artist at their exhibit at NAMM, the biggest music trade show there is. His playing ability speaks for itself.
