Thanks for mentioning the great Winifred Atwell. She lived for a long time in Australia, and was the organist at my local church when I was a child. She was very much loved by Australians !

LOVE ragtime especially what you play & how you play it . They just don't write em like that any more. The 'history' lessons are such a bonus. You mention names of old' musicians' my Dad talked about when I was a tot, 3/4ths of a century ago.

Whaaoouu ! Excellent! 👍👍✌✌😍😍

He is the only four- time winner of the World Championship Old-Time Piano Playing Contest and has been a featured performer and lekturę at ragtime and jazz festivals both in the US and around the world...

Thank you for honoring Joe Fingers Carr (Lou Busch) and Jo Anne Castle. Two great ragtime players that inspired me to play in that style way back in the early 1970s.

Phenomenal interprete ; dexterité , passion , et humilité ! ......un admirateur Français parmi beaucoup d'autres !! 😇🖐👍👍!!

I love listening to the music and your commentary .

Fantastic concert...wonderful music. Thank you Adam from Fresno, California.

Fantastic concert Adam.

your rendition of 'It Had to be You' is brilliant--you are humble--you are as good as Art Tatum...dts/usa

This is the first time I heard you play, and I'm amazed! I'm a struggling piano player who can only dream of playing like you. What a wonderful talent you have! I enjoyed your music very much as well as your commentary. You've motivated me to practice more even though it's very hard for me. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. I love listening to you play!! Play some more, I'll be listening.

Adam, you are fantastic! The first video I saw by you was when you were playing 12th Street Rag, which appeared to be done at a house party. The little boy with the glasses standing next to you was completely enthralled by your playing. I was too. I couldn't get over how you kept speeding up that 12th street rag as you went along. Absolutely amazing! I subscribed immediately after watching that video. I'm hoping to hear Kitten on the Keys written by Zez Confrey. The first time I heard the song was back in the 50s or 60s by Knuckles O'Toole.

15:25 My dad used to sing us a parody of that hit song: I want a beer like the beer That pickled dear old Dad It was the beer, and the only beer That daddy ever had A good old fashioned beer With lots of foam It took ten men to carry daddy home Oh, I want a beer like the beer That pickled my old man

Спасибо большое! Высший класс!!!

Great music Wonderful playing ! Thanks very much !

Unfreakenbelievable piano playing! Thank you ! 2:52

Dear Adam, what a wonderful concert! Greetings from Amsterdam!

Best "Frankie & Johnny" I've heard.

Wonderful music, thank you. I just discovered your youtube channel. I’m from New Jersey, the Jersey Shore as people call it. My dad loved music, he had a lot of those records that were heavy and seemed made out of rock (he was born in Elizabeth, NJ in 1910).

Phenomenal Fantastic entertaining concert.

Merci ! Quel feeling !

You nailed it. Where's Big Tiny?

Do you have a list of 50 ragtime / honky-tonk classics for the piano that an aspiring piano student can learn over time to represent a full repertoire of that time?

Nice arrangement

Swanson plays lots of nice rag literature but he just isn't an exciting piano player.
