I love piano music. Classical, jazz, rock, anything with the 88s is my jam. Count Basie on a Hammond B3 is smooth, Bach on a harpsichord is soothing. I love a good ragtime player piano roll. If you dig the same, post up some Prof. Longhair or Duke Ellington or Henri Herbert or Lee Michaels or Commander Cody and share the joy. I'm always looking for new stuff and always happy to share stuff that's new to me. Let's start with some boogie woogie up in this juke joint. I just heard this first one tonight and drat if it didn't just speak to me.

Johann Sebastian Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor BWV 565 played by organist Hans-André Stamm on the Trost-Organ of the Stadtkirche in Waltershausen, Germany. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nnuq9PXbywA Stormy Monday - Lee Michaels. An exceptional performance imo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7PpXSC1NN4 Here's the smooth Basie I mentioned, Ain't Misbehavin' with Joe Williams' hyper smooth vocals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUIJ5RSkTFo Henry Butler, a guy I only heard for the first time last week. He's freakin' good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKvIqvYSlbA \/\/\/\/ oh hell yes Lisztomania! dee eight has a new favorite as of 07:27 on Apr 29, 2019 |

This piece by Sergei Rachmaninoff has a foreboding melancholy to it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UyxpeLh7z3s Tiger Rag by Art Tatum isn't quite as sad sounding but its just about as complicated composition wise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaPeks0H3_s A time for Love by Bill Evans is like a mix of the first two I guess https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9fqwbS2wPA

It's like in 5/4 or something. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZzvZ1GQ2LM A song about a Finnish(?) actor guy, I guess. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMkM01Z0UjM Corridors of Time on piano is amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUChDL786vI A beautiful and simple piece. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyY4IZ3JDFE

Vid game classic from one of my faves: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiNIRFuchto Here's Johnny C Bad from Final Fantasy VI. For some weird reason when I hear this, I get a mental picture of an android at an old upright piano playing this with no expression, except it turns its head to the left every 19.65 seconds to flash a Mark Zuckerberg-like smile and then turning back and going blank expression again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfcxwO5bnQI

Quality stuff you guys, thanks for sharing Here's some random stuff from my playlist. First up is Alley Cat by Bent Fabric. It was a weird song to wedge into early 60s rock and stuff but it kinda grew on me over the years: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fFf0ClVLao Next up is Dave 'Baby' Cortez and his happy organ. This stuff is totally happy. You cannot listen to this and be unhappy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvzA6gy2vbk And finally Linus and Lucy, which everybody knows and hates to hear somebody play it in grandma's parlor. The original Vince Guaraldi Trio though, they do it proper: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6zypc_LhnM e: Heath posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxlvMmUjpTY&t=48s

I hate to see you trying to keep this thread up all by your lonesome, dee, so I'm here to (hopefully) help. Saw a flyer for upcoming summer concerts at my local art museum and got reminded that Bruce Hornsby exists, and is good. His 2 most well-known songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOeKidp-iWo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDgOwX72fLI And some others: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24gtrW4_BAs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEHF2iOnfXs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbQW_njFwkI

Parahexavoctal posted:"Circus Galop" (one 'L'), by Marc-André Hamelin. Hamelin is the God of technique. Here's him playing a piece he composed where he essentially plays 3 Chopin etudes at the same time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VecnWFSkjy4 Check out his recordings of Alkan for some insane virtuosity. I also like this recording of him doing some Gershwin. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ9o6PPSL88 My favorite pianist is probably Murray Perahia, though. His recordings of Bach really inspired me to play piano, when I was on the verge of giving it up. My job is now playing piano, so thanks, Perahia. Here he is playing a piece I've been practicing on and off for some years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ9o6PPSL88 I don't listen to a lot of jazz but holy poo poo Errol Garner can gently caress around with rhythm. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VHUpGxFJJ8 Also here's a cool Scriabin piece. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIP1YoPAeyM
