The Favorite was one of many solo piano rags written by Scott Joplin in the wake of his success with Maple Leaf Rag. Published in 1903, The Favorite is subtitled “A Ragtime Two-Stepâ€, which suggests a slower tempo to fit the two-step dance.Â
This arrangement of The Favorite is arranged as a duet for one Oboe and one Bassoon. Musicians at an intermediate level and above will find this ideal for formal and informal performances. The overall performance time, with repeats, is around five minutes.Â
Teachers will enjoy using this arrangement as a fun way to help with phrasing, syncopated rhythms and light articulation.Â
