    Why failed? The beauty lies in those small misses. And the one pause at 3:07 was perfect. Only if you knew how much i wish to play this track. Fantastic!

      I agree and its always better than those who never try at all. Well played!

      Yeah, this was good! I don't know why, but Bethena is kind of a killer. I tried to learn it a few years ago, and still mess up all the bridges between sections. X(

      @@quiet1686 I learnt Bethena back when I started playing ragtime. Certainly isn’t an easy piece, though it shouldn’t be too hard with enough practise either. The main difficulty, I think, is getting all the voice leading to really pop.

      Thank you! Normally I would have probably stopped too, but I felt it would be too embarrassing to stop instead of finishing it.

    Hey Buddy.. If I could do that it wouldn't call it failure.. ..I would call it a Christmas miracle !!! Stop being so hard on your self. We all stub our toe once a while. Tahe it from me..." Great Job " !!! Jim

      Thanks! The only reason I called it failure is because I was able to play it earlier almost flawlessly. Though I was really nervous which could explain why. I guess I am too hard on myself, I think I have a forgotten the main reason why I was playing in public. To simply have a good time, not to play everything perfectly which is impossible.

      @@jimmymiller77 I recorded myself playing a few days ago. I remember in different parts of the performance I felt that I made obvious errors. When I listened to it later, I thought that it sounded perfect, I couldn't hear any mistakes. I think the thoughts of messing up in front of other people is rooted deeply into our genes.

    I saw that "kr" you put next to 800 for the price and I was like "what unit of cash is this? Isn't this guy american?" and then I looked at your about page and I saw Sweden and I just thought "OH, it's Swedish Krones or however it's spelled" xD
    Nice playing!

      I take you thinking I was an American as a compliment. It's not weird at all for you think that considering that you have never seen or heard me talk in Swedish before.
      I appreciate your compliment!

      ​@@PiotrBarcz Since I am not American I can not confirm if that is true. Sometimes I feel like being American has to be cooler than being Swedish but I believe that only happens because you sometimes get tired of your own culture and admire a different one.
