❤very nice.ty young man.😅 From NZ downunder.😊😂❤

Listen to the mocking bird played in ragtime. Reminds me of lyrics in Irving Berlin's 2:55 Alexander's Ragtime Band... "And if you care to hear the Swanèe River played in ragtime, Come on & hear Come on and hear... Alexander's Ragtime Band..."

Every day I look forward to hear a composition performed by you. Thank you Leander.

You play fantastically. I love your smile while playing, you make an impression on me for being so young and enjoys what you are doing. Please continue on. Thanks young man.

A wonderful rendition of this "Terra Verde" version of ragtime, Leander. Bravo young Sir!

Loved it, Leander. Beautiful.

Oh, I especially loved these pieces. Beautiful. I love how fast your fingers move. What a joy you are to watch and listen to!!!

Is that a player piano he is using. Amazing how he keeps up with it

who broke your D key ?😂

great, I think you have a future and a short way to be on top in TH-cam

I love to see that you really enjoy playing!

Amazing that his young lad can play the piano like a pro and also smile. He thoroughly has his God given talent. Keep at it. CA)

Hi, Leander. I made a positive comment on this video the other day, but I got attacked by the Wicked Witch of the East, so I deleted it. So I’ll try again. Thank you, Leander, for this most beautiful and enjoyable video. God bless you and your family.

That was fantastic, Leander. I love seeing your joy and sheer energy when playing.

That was wonderful. Well done Leander! Looking back just a few weeks ago, to around Christmas time and comparing your videos between then and now, I believe that you have grown some. Maybe it just looks that way because of the new haircut!

you need a baby grand to match your talent

Run.

You have lovely long fingers!

Fantastic! Thanks! A sugestion : maple leaf rag scott joplin

This was the first rag i learned at about your age many years ago. I still play it for fun. You played it so well!!

Leander and parents, Here is the reply from DTR: Thanks, Rob. Your role as conduit leaves me comfortable, as it spares me the prospect of entanglement in the comment section, which quickly shows itself to be an abrasive and potentially time-eating affair, as is so often the case with TH-cam. Leander is in pressing need of a teacher to get him on a better technical path, not only for aesthetic purposes but to save his wrists and hands from the wrecking habits so evident to serious pianists and pedagogs. Other good friends who started like Leander are Adam Swanson and the master of technique: Frederick Hodges.

Your videos are like the sun breaking out of the clouds.

Leander this is haunting and errie in a Good way 😊❤️😊❤️✌️

Excellent playing! Very handsome 😀. And i suspect you are autistic too

Sounds like George Winston💕

We love your playing. You are very gifted young man. I've included a link to Stephanie trick who plays stride piano. I sent your link to her so to make her aware of your talent. :) th-cam.com/video/NSqyFPTLe-A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vhXq2vVGDmi-tL4u

Happy song. Thanks.

Beautiful song. You played it very well.

You are great!! Thank you for all the wonderful Musik 💕💕💕💕💕

The piano-playing is wonderful but the grins are even better!

Dear Leander! When my father was 14, his first job was playing the piano in the movie theaters in a North Texas oilfield town. He and my aunt shared that job. Music became their passion, and they went on to have a band. In the 1920s, they played all over Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma,Tennessee and many southern states. I hope God continues to bless you and you continue to bless us. I see my dad in you! That's why this almost 80 year old lady smiles the whole time I listen to you !

That was a fun one Le!

Looks like this boy has a dead key on his piano! Somebody buy him a new one!

That sound really good to me! I like fast music of all kinds!

You know what Leander if and when you do get a teacher, we love your skills with ragtime an such ,but your true fans im sure would be thrilled to follow your progression through classical tutoring you could upload some of your lessons and practice sessions as well i think people wil find watching the practice sessions and lessons just as exciting as your ragtime to see that since of growth and learning for me is just as exciting as a live concert, I plus so many would love to see your Career blossom over time, I have seen this with some other great up and coming classical musicians an you have so many of the building blocks to achieve much success and im sure the benefits you would get would inspire you to much greater success come on boy do it ! Please

Good job!! Like your haircut too!!

This really is one of the best and most valuable TH-cam channels

Wow he’s a WIZKID EXCELLENT performance and he loves every minute of playing so professionally.

I am sure that David Thomas Roberts woulc love the way you play it , Leander.

You are having so much fun with it. Wonderful to see. You are very talented.

The hair cut looks nice

That is such a lovely, poetic piece and so well played by another Leander. Thank you!

Tu es merveilleux !! Tu es un vrai rayon de soleil et nous rend heureux - même si le temps est gris !! Dommage que tu aies un mauvais piano !!! Propose à une marque (yamaha...) de faire des démonstrations une fois de temps en temps ; et qu'ils t'offrent un bon instrument en contrepartie !! Je me demande toujours comment tu peux connaître autant de morceaux et les jouer si bien alors que tu es jeune !!! Quel âge as-tu ? Allez ! MERCI encore pour ce bonheur que tu nous offre ! Je t'embrasse. Herve (français)

This is Adam you did a amazing job

A very beautiful piece. I'd never heard of this composer before but listening now he does have some amazing pieces. You're doing a good job of this one.

Leander (I think that's your name...) I just wanted you to know: Just like snowflakes; no two humans are exactly the same; you are ONE of a kind. At your age I worried that I was unlike other kids. Eventually I learned that God created me, like all humans in human history; "unique." You are unique. You have a gift unique to you. It thrills me that you discovered it, and embrace it. Thanks so much for sharing your gift with us.

You are amazing, so talented

Good job

👏👏 Awesome Leander! Thank you!

Dear Dreaming. I have a request or suggestion. Please learn and play “The St. Louis Rag” by Tom Turpin, 1903. This rag has been played in many movies and documentaries. When you hear that rag, it sets your mind to the turn of the century (1899-1900). I am sure you have head it yourself. Thanks.
