James Hubert Eubie Blake (1887-1983) Blake was born in Baltimore to former slaves, and the only child of 11 that would survive to adulthood. The young Eubie taught himself the organ after his parents put a $75 organ in their home for 25 cents per week (which would take them almost 6 years to pay off). By the age of 15 was playing piano in Baltimore's night clubs, holding a regular job at Agnes Shelton's sporting house. Blake was already an exceptional pianist by the early 1900's, and he had to simplify his music drastically to get it published. Blake was among the pioneers of ragtime, however he was often too far ahead of his time. He released two rags (Charleston Rag and his Baltimore Buzz) in the same year which Scott Joplin released his Maple Leaf Rag. Unfortunately for Blake, the competition was too strong. Part of the reason for Blake's Charleston Rag and his Baltimore Buzz not making the big time may have been due to Blake the progressive nature of his sound. People found it hard to digest his music, especially the publishers.

Bugle Call Rag was composed in 1916 with Carey Morgan. It was one of many patriotic selections written by composers during the World War I era. This delightful piece uses bugle calls and quotes There’ll Be A Hot Time In The Old Town Tonight.

A retired member of the United States Air Force Band where he served on the Music Production staff (as well as a trumpeter and bugler) and a student of Bill Holcombe, Jari Villanueva continues writing for different ensembles. His arrangements are played by brass quintets all over the country including many military groups. Many of his arrangements can be found on Sheet Music Plus and JV MUSIC.

Jari is a 2016 Sheet Music Plus Arranging Contest winner and winner of the 2016 Holiday Arranging Contest.

Woodwind Ensemble - Level 5 - Digital Download

SKU: A0.945625

Composed by Scott Joplin and Scott Hayden. Arranged by Nancy J. Brammer. 20th Century,Ragtime. 17 pages. Nancy Brammer #5999823. Published by Nancy Brammer (A0.945625).

A delightful rag from Scott Joplin and one of his students, Scott Hayden. It is also called a Rag-Time Two Step.  Instrumentation includes Oboe (or Flute), Clarinet, Piano and Bass.  The bass is optional but lends a nice color to the piece. In concerts where we have included this rag, it has been a favorite of the audience. It is technically a little difficult for the woodwinds and it takes some practice even for advanced players. But once mastered, it is great fun to play. It is shorter than the original with less repeats for endurance purposes.

Composed by Yvonne Johnson. Instructional,Ragtime,Standards. Score. 2 pages. Yvonne Johnson #2987013. Published by Yvonne Johnson (A0.767949).

Honky-Tonk Rag has that old honky-tonk piano sound and is one of 6 pieces written in the traditional ragtime style of the great Scott Joplin. Using little or no RH double octave work, these rags were composed to help the intermediate level student gain confidence with the difficult stride bass technique. The bass must remain steady for the right hand syncopation to be effective. The given fingering works well but is a suggested one only and can be altered to suit the performer.

Intermediate/Grade 4-5 level.

By Gazza's Razztime Orchestra. By Scott Joplin. Arranged by Gary Blake Peterson. Ragtime. 43 pages. Gary Blake Peterson #979632. Published by Gary Blake Peterson (A0.1396759).

This arrangement of Joplin's wonderful Peacherine Rag is by Gary Blake Peterson and is from Gazza's Razztime Orchestra's Classic Rags Collection. It is based on D. S. DeLisle's orchestration and includes his added countermelodies.  The early orchestration tended towards having all instruments playing all of the time, and had limited expressive markings.  This version adds a tuba, and transposes the cornet part from A to Bb.  Articulations and dynamics are added, and much is re-scored to add variety to the repeated sections - making it well suited to concert performance.  It is set for a 12-piece ragtime orchestra: String quartet, plus piccolo, clarinet in A, cornet, trombone, tuba, piano, drum set, and double bass.

This paper proposes a sketch-version of a unifying beginners’ cost-effective teaching/learning method for any fretted string instrument (like ukulele, guitalele, mandolin and guitar) using the same 4-strings tuning which may be also used to teach/learn the basic music theory and practice elements: more specifically, the standard tuning of the central 4 strings of the guitar may be applied (non-standardly!) to all the other cited smaller (thus more portable) instruments (like ukulele, guitalele and mandolin) which may be used either independently/separately or as  preparatory instruments for the purpose of teaching guitar (and music theory) after that first teaching/learning phase on a smaller instrument (or on a 4-strings guitar).

This unifying method may largely open the horizons of children (and beginners in general, to experience more than one instrument) and may also help poor children/persons (who don’t afford a guitar) to be taught the guitar basics (including important elements of music theory) on much cheaper (smaller) instruments (who are generally much more accessible): that is why this method also addresses to all music teaching systems from all poor countries worldwide.

For those who have a guitar or a guitalele and want to apply this method, they may easily remove the 1st and the 6th guitar/guitalele strings (E4 and E2): the resting nucleus composed from the 4 central strings is sufficient to teach/learn all the basic theoretical and practical notions of guitar (or any other fretted string instrument) and music in general.

This paper also contains some examples of songs (written in English and Romanian languages) with included chords (aka tabulatures), each song displayed in one tonality (C major or its relative A minor) or two tonalities (C major [/A minor] and G major [/ E minor]) which can then be altered by using a capodastro (aka capo) to fit any tonality and thus fit the ambitus and tessitura (the most acceptable and comfortable vocal range) of any child/adult voice.

This paper continues the work of other past articles/preprints of the same author in music.
