Tricky Fingers

NOTE: This title is currently available as a digital download only.The CD version is sold out. Ragtime legend Max Morath says "Tricky Fingers is simply a stunning piece of work." Jazz pianist Tony Caramia calls Martin Spitznagel a "young man who approaches Ragtime with the vitality, strength, enthusiasm, gusto, and spirit that it deserves." And reviewer Jack Rummel writes that Tricky Fingers is "an impressive first recording," adding that Spitznagel's "interpretations are anything but stereotypical -- one hardly knows what to expect next!" Anyone who has heard Martin Spitznagel play knows the energy and imagination he brings to all of his performances. Spitznagel approaches ragtime not as a historical curiosity bound in a particular era, but as a living music as fresh and vibrant today as it ever was. He has been featured at dozens of ragtime and jazz festivals across the United States, including the West Coast Ragtime Festival (Sacramento, California), the San Antonio Ragtime Festival
