    I’ve just found this music in my mothers things and wondered what it sounded like. Thank so much. My Grandfather would have played it a lot as it’s so well used over 100 years ago.

    It's nice to hear the original version. This is a popular tune at Fiddle contests, and I have heard some really incredible renditions, Mark O'Connor during a warm-up at Winfield in 1977 for example. Great Job Bach Scholar! I lost my copy of your Bach Chorales in a move, but I learned more about reading and harmony from your book than any other piano book I have ever bought.

      I was gonna say the same thing. Wasn't Repton an excellent game and extremely well written for the BBC Micro? Superior Software were brilliant. Listening to this is nostalgia.

    I have not found Rag Pianist like Marty Mincer that can play Black &White Rag so great even Adam Swanson that is great can't deliver B&W Rag with such an energy & enthusiasm. I'm glad I discovered Marty Mincer . Not to mention classical pianists of new generation like Katia Buniatishvili " The lady with golden fingers" , not to mention how presentable she looks , but her music l perssive by ear not eyes .

    I learned this piece a couple weeks ago after hearibg tom brier's performance of it, and I made a new ending as well. The piece follows the sheets, but i extended it to include a transposed version of the first strain (G->C) at the end. I found it very simple, as the chord progression in the first and second strain are the exact same.
    Anyway, great performance as always!

    When I was a kid about 33 years ago my parents had a BBC Master Acorn Computer and there was a game by Superior Software called Repton. The main programmer was called Tim Tyler and at the time he was 15 years old when he designed the game. He and his team also programmed the music to the game and the music was The Black And White Rag.

    Imagine someone also singing to this in a club in the 1880s to 1960s when really being social was a thing. Do you feel good about having only a digital social life?
    It wasn't recorded so nobody knows exactly what went on at places that entertained with this song.

    When I was a child my parents bought a BBC Micro computer. I had a game for that computer called Repton, The Black & White Rag was the in-game music.
    The Black & White Rag by George Botsford sounds very similar to Maple Leaf Rag by Scott Joplin.

    The playing is about as blah as it gets, "the right notes, but no music comes forth." I'd direct your students to a teacher who is, you know, musical. Your sight-reading boast does not withstand close scrutiny or comparison to those sight-readers who are legend within the classical community.

    • @BachScholar
      @BachScholar  7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      And who are "those sight-readers who are legend within the classical community"? And you are wrong on all counts. You have no idea what you are talking about. Do you play this piece or ragtime at all? Can you upload your own "musical" performance of it? And why would I "direct" students to someone else, since this is how I make my living?

      I agree with Muse in saying that this interpretation is a bit 'too sterile,' and has a very classical approach to it, one of high precision and a sense of cautiousness towards the notation on the page as opposed to the 'feel of the music.' I believe that Terry Waldo said in his book that people who play ragtime nowadays (back in the 70s when he wrote it) know how to play all the right notes, but miss the point of the music by not adding their own embellishments and personal flair. Tom Brier is a very good example of what Terry considers a good performer of ragtime.
