Excellent. Rachmaninov would have been astonished. Accurately and beautifully played with all the correct dynamics and tasteful musical feeling No true musician will turn up their nose at this difficult and unique performance. Hooray for TH-cam it brings experts and geniuses out of the woodwork. A poppy blooming in a lonely field was born to be unseen. Thank you for presenting this to the world. Who could not love the wholeness and Completeness of Fats Waller’s contribution to the original Jazz fraternity. My first love is baroque music, subtle thoughtful and competent but a performance like this opens up a wide and Delightful musical vista joining the ends of a broken circle. Very well done son.
Recompositioned music by piece is imaginative invention. Sacrilege is a neurally rutted lie for those who are classical to the point of eclecticless snobbery...
This speaks to my soul. I just started learning Rach 2 and want to reinterpret it afterwards in a Rhodes jazz style and you have given me some of the only inspiration available on TH-cam !! Fantastic
Cedric, tu es décidément un pianist stride pure sang, si seulement les turbos classiques, sans imagination propre, ces robots sachant jouer uniquement ce qui est écrit suivaient ton exemple !!! Merci beaucoup, joyeuses Fêtes.
It sounds amazing! I was curious about how the concerto would sound mixing it with the jazz style, which they have little in common, and I was pleasantly surprised by how it turned out. I'm fascinated by your ragtime way of playing it, and the fact that the result doesn't lose the harmonies that make the piece what it is. Excellent work :)
It´s incredible how good music and videos often don´t get much views at youtube...but the important thing is that we know Who is who...who plays well, and people who have millions of views and play almost nothing...
More, please, more!!! Rachmninoff uses so much rich harmony that his music lends itself easily to jazz styles. I'm definitely trying this! How about the G minor prelude?
One's own interpretation and personality makes for a great piece of music. Tatum was Tatum, James P. was James P. and Willie the Lion same thing. I don't want to hear sheet music. Show me your view, that's the music that counts!
@@Downecker I get your point but I only said that because Rachmaninoff knew Tatum and could be a good idea to quote Tatum's runs to remind they friendship. Also, Rachmaninoff was very influenced by Tatum and one part of the concerto reminds his fluidity at the piano. It's only an stylistic point of view.
Hey Hugo ! I think we're on the same page even same key! I just enjoy all the greats, Rag Time and Stride! When I hear Ralph Sutton play " I've got Rhythm " , for example, it's at another level ! I'm 73, studied piano in my early teens and I respect talent when I hear it! Hy from Jersey!
Cédric, you have an exceptional gift for stride piano. Your technique and touch are flawless. Why is it I can find precious little of your stride solos on TH-cam? I would like for you to dive head-first into stride and and play a variety of traditional tunes, not just classical. You're the best stride player I've heard (based on this tune), and I've heard most if not all, past and present. Give us stride lovers a break and jump in!
Great idea! I thought about taking passages of Shonberg's "Verklarte Nacht" and using them for jazz improvisations but I never got around to it. Glad someone is thinking along the same lines.
Wow, that sounds so cool! I've always wanted to hear Rachmaninoff in jazz! Do you have the sheet music of this masterpiece arrangement? Or do I have to transcribe it by ear?) Oh, and by the way, my personal opinion: I'd love to hear the original ending at the very end. At 2:37. Just take the original and change it to a swing rhythm. Because nothing can beat the original ending. It doesn't need to be changed. If there's no sheet music, then I'll have to pick it up by ear, and then I'll make the ending like Rachmaninoff.)
Hello again Hugo! Wow ! You're that young ! You're way ahead of where I was in the early ' 60 ! You were lucky that someone or something turned your attention to the piano! Same for me . Early swing bands hooked me. Whether Fletcher Henderson, Chick Webb , Count Basie and many more. Those were the days of the BEST bands! You have many years to enjoy your talent. I enjoy when I learn something I never realized! So, keep at it. So much to learn. I read biographies on the greats. Love learning!!
wouhou, une version atypique, assurément ! Moi qui suis fan de Rachmaninov ^^ ton impro du mercredi 9 sept pour le Piano du Lac à Angers m'a un peu fait penser à Rachmaninov parfois (à Debussy aussi, et Joe Hisaishi pour la première partie, ce sont exactement mes influences !). C'était splendide et très inspiré ! Je vais essayer de la rejouer :) (Sarah Trutet)
4 ปีที่แล้ว
Merci Sarah! Je vais Joe Hisaishi que je ne connais pas encore...
Magnifique! C'est devenu un tube maintenant avec le Piano du Lac! Aurions-nous le privilège d'avoir un enregistrement du Thème des Pêcheurs de Perles? ;)
hey oscar, great job, incredible rag! I would love to get the score but i dont undestand the link, i think its broken or something, is there any other way to buy the score?
Wow... that's really a cool arrangement... lol :) Never thought about Rach played stride... but it works... it's actually even better (in terms of how it's written) than most stride arrangements...
Not only have you piqued my interest, you have just awakened a sleeping and very annoyed beast, Arrrgh! I will now proceed to make a complete note-for-note sheet music transcription of this video just for fun, thank you.

Thanks!!!

Many thanks Jonh-Patrick!
Excellent arrangement, keep swinging forevewer...
It may be sacrilegious, but I love it...!!!
Donald Lambert called this kind of work a "musical sacrilege"... Glad you like it!
Why - times two...
Recompositioned music by piece is imaginative invention. Sacrilege is a neurally rutted lie for those who are classical to the point of eclecticless snobbery...
@@juniperwoodgreen4090 please watch some TwoSetViolin
My mind is blown...this works surprisingly well
Great work
Thanks !
Wow. I admit I was a bit skeptical when I saw the title of this video but after listening to it I'm glad I did. It's awesome. Great playing.
This speaks to my soul. I just started learning Rach 2 and want to reinterpret it afterwards in a Rhodes jazz style and you have given me some of the only inspiration available on TH-cam !! Fantastic
Amaaazing! Please do versions of other pieces!
That's great fun, put a real smile on my face. Bravo.
Brilliant arrangement and playing!!
Rachmaninoff loved Art Tatum so I think he would’ve enjoyed this potentially. I did 🙃
Wonderful. I remember the lessons you used to give us. What a chance !!!
Merci Philippe!!!
As far as technique goes I love how flat you keep your hands, your whole style reminds me a lot of Ross Petot!
Cedric, tu es décidément un pianist stride pure sang, si seulement les turbos classiques, sans imagination propre, ces robots sachant jouer uniquement ce qui est écrit suivaient ton exemple !!! Merci beaucoup, joyeuses Fêtes.
Merci Mike!!!

toujours cette main gauche ultra précise,et autant de facilité à jouer les dixièmes.Bravo CEDRIC .
True mastery of the keyboard
The walking tenths give me a big grin hearing them in the context of Rach’s music 😊
Rachtime!
I've been listening to Rach 2 for the past like 2 years, I thought I would really hate a jazz arrangement but it came out real nice man, Props!
It´s incredible how good music and videos often don´t get much views at youtube...but the important thing is that we know Who is who...who plays well, and people who have millions of views and play almost nothing...
More, please, more!!! Rachmninoff uses so much rich harmony that his music lends itself easily to jazz styles. I'm definitely trying this! How about the G minor prelude?
Your audio quality is superb!
You just turned my mind into a jelly. Thank you!!
Ah ah, fantastico! Bravo!!!!!!
Thanks!
Surprenant !
C'est le but... merci pour le commentaire!
This is a very interesting interpretation. I love the twist on it.
I was waiting for some Art Tatum's runs but it was a great interpretation
One's own interpretation and personality makes for a great piece of music. Tatum was Tatum, James P. was James P. and Willie the Lion same thing. I don't want to hear sheet music. Show me your view, that's the music that counts!

@@Downecker Yeah , it happens the same to me ! Knowing that you're 4 times my age
I love Rach music. I really liked this jazz version. Thanks!
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen
Endless love

Omg that was spectacular
Brilliant!❤

@ when new videos?)
Great
You made me dance! Amazing arrangement!
I'm obsessed with this.
Thanks Zoe! I love your music aswell!
Great idea! I thought about taking passages of Shonberg's "Verklarte Nacht" and using them for jazz improvisations but I never got around to it. Glad someone is thinking along the same lines.
Vous êtes un très grand pianiste...promis à un brillant avenir pour peu que vous vous lanciez sur les scènes internationales
Merci Laurent!
My ears ! nooo ! what have you done !!! i won't be able to unhear that now... :D
A brilliant arrangement! :D
Thanks!

outstanding , thank you for publishing !
I want to dance with this music. This is very beautiful!
Très bel arrangement, superbement interprété. Votre approche me fait penser à celle de Chris Dawson.
Bravo !
In the footsteps of Clément Doucet ! Rachmaninovia n°2 ? Bravo.
really great version and good improv!
This is fantastic!
I like this more than the original, so lively!
Thanks! But my music is nothing in comparaison with the original...
AMAZING. Fantastic work! You also preserve the feel of the original which is in itself impressive :)
Just love this!
C'est fou comme un peu de rythme change le caractère d'une pièce !
Je m'en vais essayer la "recette" au plus vite...

Extraordinaire 🤩
Thank you, it was a pleisure!
Definitely highly advanced but the absolute best thing to play if a classical musician needs to broaden out their repertoire
Très bien fait!
Thanks!

Wow! Marvellous interpretation. Is that a Steinway "D"? The bass and clarity of the grand are awesome!
Magnifique! C'est devenu un tube maintenant avec le Piano du Lac!
Aurions-nous le privilège d'avoir un enregistrement du Thème des Pêcheurs de Perles? ;)
My Mom, Sarah Carter Suzara would play in this same style❣️
Awesome!
