    As a ragtime player, I quite admire the dedication in the video!
    Many non-musicians don't realize how hard ragtime is! Many musicians avoid it as it is extremely hard to sight read and usually requires a lot of practice.. In this piece, especially the third part, is particularly difficult. Hardest bars to play in my opinion is near the end of the hardest section: the third section, at 1:33. (At least when i first practiced it)
    Even so, Jakob played these parts really well.

    • @adriankolsters
      @adriankolsters 2 года назад +1

      Completely agree.... have been working on the first two parts for quite a while now, but it's almost an impossible task with the rhythm stuff going on in the left and right hand. Although you do get used to the patterns in the song, which does speed up the progress a bit lately.

      It's not very hard, (Or well at least for me) I practiced piano from 0% in like 2 months and then i decided to learn this song, i learned the 2 first parts in 2 days , and i learned the full song in 2 weeks, maybe some people has more "Skill?" idk, but for me the rag time isn't hard.

    • @danteyt5191
      @danteyt5191 Год назад

      @@akamundi864 That's why i say it, because i started to play piano in just 2 months and just like 15 minutes every day, and then i decided to practice this song and i learned to play it full in 2 weeks with 30 minutes of practice everyday. I think that it depends too in "Birth skills", because it wasn't hard for me, but it can be an impossible song for others to play in just 2 months of experience with piano.
