Because of seeing and hearing Jo Ann Castle on the Lawrence Welk Tv show I learned about Ragtime and Scott Joplin and the great Ragtime composers. Hearing her play Maple Leaf Rag led me to discover and read Rudi Blesh book They All Played a Ragtime and I later joined the Maple Leaf Club that had monthly meetings with Ragtime pianists including one meeting where Eubie Blake was guest artist and played. Jo Ann Castle got me started on my appreciation of Ragtime decades before the movie The Sting and Marvin Hamlish.
Too fast ! Too fast ! She is a great piano player, but it would be more pleasant for the audience and for the tune if it was played more slowly. For the listeners to perceive every single note !
The most animated piano player! Joe Ann Castle is always a delight to watch and hear playing piano!

She was an inspiration when I was a kid.
Wow so fast !
Slower is better
Holy moly!
Take that, you darned piano!! Looks like that poor banjo player was having a heck of a time trying to keep up with her...
Wunnerful, wunnerful!
she plays it so wrong, right?
Too fast ! Too fast !

Everyone plays this way too fast. Joplin even said, steady, not fast.
Try it at .75 much better except for the distortion.
Sanki, 20 Yaşında değil de, 30'larında gibi, daha olgun bir görüntüsü var Co En Kesıl'ın
Jo Ann Castle could have wiped the floor with Art Tatum. Tatum is nothing compared to her.
she could have went head to head with Del Wood
