Do you have sheet music of the music he played. I remember I bought a book of some of his arrangements but I lent it to somebody and he lost it.
At this time, I am not selling his sheet music, but some are available from different sellers on eBay. 🎶
Wow❤🎉😮
Great to see a clip from his show. A great summer replacement.
A beautifully played and wonderfully orchestrated medley of there ever was one. I love it!

What a powerful and glorious song played beautifully and powerfully by Mr. Piano, Roger Williams. It still moves me and stirs my emotions as it did back in 1963. How prophetic and meaningful a song and story for today as tensions and conflict in the Middle East are at an alarming high. Baruj HaShem Adonai 🙏 "And I will make you a great nation, And I will bless you, And make your name great; And so you shall be a blessing; And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who curses you I will curse.". Exodus 12: 1-2
Он- чудо земное. Слава, маэстро, слава! Услышал его в 70- х и не могу успокоится. Он волшебник игры и мелодий!
Браво, маэстро!
Clever and charming
I can easily picture Roger recording this Disney classic and adding many variations to the song.
Beautiful, my type of music.
Fantastic and mesmerizing, thanks 👍👍🌹🌹👍👍

The young ladies are loverly. No piercings, tattoos or purple hair. And the music of course is fantastic.During this time I looked forward to the Awards. I was 22. Those days are but a distant memory.
I always thought u learned the classics first .?
❤ ALWAYS, THIS BEAUTIFUL COMPOSITION WILL BE ONE OF THE BEST MUSIC FOR A FILM. ALL TIMES!!
Fora de série ! Demais ❤❤❤❤
Hold on to your seats? Bravo maestro Williams. As always, MAGNIFICENT and transforming! ❤️🎹🎶🎵🎉🌟
Who was best? Liberace or Roger Williams?
Roger Williams :)
Amazing performance. I do admire the ability of the artist to concentrate on the performance and not personify with the fact that those 'presidents' were mostly war criminals who openly lied to the public, approved overthrowing regimes around the world and very rarely had a positive impact on public life.
A beautiful rendition. Thank you Roger. God Bless. ❤️❤️❤️

Great to hear, thanks!
KÖSZÖNÖM ❤IGAZ SZERELEM DALA MARAD NEKEM MIG ÉLEK❤😊😊❤
Nunca jamais teremos talentos como ele e outros de sua e nossa época. Saudades dos anos dourados.
Sim. Graças a Deus, contemplamos grandes filmes, artistas, orquestras, e este grande pianista com sua orquestra. Nunca mais teremos nada igual
I love Roger William's dynamic arrangements of hymns.
He's the BEST!
Thank you! I love seeing your comment here on RUclips!
Thank you for helping to keep this wonderfully beautiful genre of music alive. Easy listening instrumentals (a.k.a. beautiful music) is so sadly neglected. That's why I pay for Serius XM. That's one of the streaming choices that makes this wonderful music available. The other is satellite TV's Music Choice.
Como un Niño Jugando,que Virtuosismo.Roger nunca morirá.
WOW. Tears.
