RE: Hive Open Mic, week 53, Maple Leaf Rag by Scott Joplin

in Hive Open Mic4 years ago

This brings me back to Banjo Kazooie. As one of the protagonists is a bear who knows to play the banjo there's a lot of rags and bluegrass in the music of the game. And it sound wonderful. Looking at you playing it so well it's just great.

I still find myself in awe to watch play, my dear Gabriela. There's a lot of poise kept in such happy and enticing music. While playing this, it must be difficult to fend off the need to step and dance. That on itself is a hard thing to control. The fingers are show their usual dexterity and grace. Tempo is kept with the usual changes in rags and that type of music and I think I see some hints of rubato in your playing. Maybe I just worked a lot today and started to see things.

Great choice and I commend your initiative to give the earnings of this post to @primalamusica. He is one of those steady supporters for all musicians in this site.

You just worked too hard, so you see things 🤣😜 I hope I didn't use rubato here, would be out of character, but maybe I did it, unintentionally :D

Thank you for you always detailed rewievs of my playing @bertrayo 🙌

Ha, ha, ha. That was my impression 😝

You're welcome. Good to see you playing, @mipiano
