Rod Miller's
exuberant renditions of favorite rags and popular standards have been
delighting audiences at Disneyland Park for over three
decades. Raised on a farm in Staples, Minnesota, Rod arrived in
Southern California in 1966, and worked as a graphic artist while pursuing
his dream learning to play ragtime piano. Having saved enough money to
purchase an old-time player piano, he learned the complex rhythms of
ragtime.
Rod slowed down the piano rolls and rehearsed two or three measures at a time until he mastered the music. Practicing two to six hours a day, it took him three months to learn his first piece, "I Can't Give You Anything But Love." Soon Rod had developed his signature up-tempo style. In 1969, a Disneyland Park talent scout was searching for a ragtime piano player for the famed theme park. After hearing Rod's energetic style at the Maple Leaf Club, the scout recognized this unique talent. Since that time, Rod has entertained and charmed many of the more than 200 million visitors who have strolled past the Coca Cola Refreshment Corner on Main Street U.S.A. Rod's exhilarating style continues to attract audiences of all ages. Chuck Warble.... 'The music, combined with your delightful personality, makes you an exceptional joy to both hear and see. I would drive a long way to be able to see and hear you.' The Vezzanis.... 'You're our favorite stop on Main Street - we are always guaranteed a toe-tappin', sing along, clappin' good time by your set of ivories.' Christine Camerlingo... ''Ragtime' is terrific... I play it constantly and can't imagine ever tiring of it.' Now relive the fun and excitement with Ragtime, the music of Rod Miller. Over 1 hour of music available on compact disc or cassette. | |
