Beethoven -> Modern
on: February 15, 2012, 07:26:27 PM
Hello people,

I'm new on this forum and I'm from Belgium. I'm fan of Deep Purple and in one of them concerts (Birmingham 1993), they play a song named 'Beethoven's ninth':



If you go to 8:02, you can see John Lord playing piano. Now, my question: Which song does he play at 8:02?

Can anybody help me?

You are more likely to get a response if you are patient.

All but one of your posts are identical, which is likely to get you booted out before you get your answer.

Multiposting does not increase the chances of getting an answer nor affect the speed of getting one.

If anything, people will generally ignore you.

I thought it was the World's worst ever attempt at Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag.

He starts off with Maple Leaf Rag and then moves onto an even worse attempt at Mozart's Eine Kliene Krapmusik.

I mean... From 7:40 till 8:00, he plays something. Then he goes up and from 8:02 till 8:15 he plays something beuatiful (for me) in the style of western (for me also:p) But i want to know what it is, i don't think it's Maple Leaf Rag.

This is my final answer.

From 8.02 to 8.15 he plays part of Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag (not the beginning)
From 8.16 onwards he plays Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik

He then sweats all over the piano and tries to impress the crowd.

@thalbergmad: Ok, I believe you, but... Uhm.. Can you say with a youtube-video which part of the song it is? because i already listened it on youtube and I don't hear anything about that?

Hey dude,

We're always happy to help with questions like this, but the way you multi-post the same question and and then disagree with the answer after it's been provided by experts of this field several times, it's kind of upsetting for a lot of people here.  And I don't think thalbergmad's going to be replying to this post again at this point.

I'm providing a link to the 'Maple Leaf Rag' on youtube:



Please go to 0:42 on that video and you will hear the second theme to that song, which is, in fact, what Lord is playing on the video.  It may be difficult to recognize the way Lord is playing it because he is improvising, but it is that Joplin beyond the shadow of any doubt.

The breakdown for other parts of the video are as follows:

6:45: Beethoven - Fur Elise
7:40: Nothing, just rock improvisations
8:02: Joplin - Maple Leaf (the 2nd theme)
8:16: Mozart - Eine Kleine Nachmusik
8:32: 'Shave and a Haircut', played three times

Hopefully this answers your questions about the video, if not, whatever you post next about it will probably be met with more insults or just be ignored, I'm sorry to say.

Have an excellent day!
