Product description
A partition that includes seven very well known ragtimes by Scott Joplin is arranged for a string quartet (violin 1, violin 2, cello and optional part for contrabass). Very nice and useful!
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.
