Product description
These ragtime classics have been arranged in traditional five-finger style, with the melody split between the hands, and without key signatures in the solo part. Dotted quarter notes, triplets, and sixteenth notes have been avoided. Optional duet accompaniments create a fuller, richer musical experience.
Scott Joplin (1867-1917) was an African-American musician, pianist, and composer, one of the first representatives of ragtime music, who is now known as the King of Ragtime. During his career he wrote more than 100 ragtime and non-ragtime compositions, one ragtime ballet and two operas. His most famous compositions include Maple Leaf Rag, Elite Syncopations and The Entertainer, which even reached number three on the US singles chart in 1974.
