SKU: A0.1117429

Composed by Scott Joplin. Arranged by David McKeown. 20th Century,Jazz,Ragtime. Score and parts. 17 pages. David McKeown #718975. Published by David McKeown (A0.1117429).

Scott Joplin is celebrated as the United States’ first well-known black composer, making his name as a writer of piano rags. His life was a constant struggle with adversity, and Joplin died relatively young in 1917, at the dawn of the recording age. Few remembered Joplin’s music until a revival in the 1970s brought The Entertainer and others to the world’s attention. Nowadays Scott Joplin has taken his rightful place in the gallery of great American composers.

The duets included in this collection are, The Entertainer, The Maple Leaf Rag, The Easy Winners, The Elite Syncopations and The Favorite.

They have been arranged as duets for one Flute and one Violin, and include all sections of the original compositions. The YouTube link showcases the clarinet version of these duets. The duets are suitable for players at an intermediate and and advanced intermediate level. Musicians will find these Ragtime duets ideal for formal and informal performances, light and fun, yet still a serious and vitally important part of the American musical heritage. The overall performance time for all five is around 25 minutes.

Teachers will enjoy using these arrangements as a fun way to help with phrasing, syncopated rhythms and light articulation.

SKU: A0.1270145

Composed by Bill Malcolm. Arranged by Bill Malcolm. Chamber,Ragtime. 26 pages. Bill Malcolm #862570. Published by Bill Malcolm (A0.1270145).

I wrote these short rags as a duet for clarinet and bassoon, then during the covid shut down, I rearranged them for an eleven-piece band that met (social-distancing) in someones front yard, so the neighbours could hear, and finally for full concert band (when a band director ask me to do it.) They aren't too difficult and amuse audiences.
The sound bite is The Bitcoin Rag.
The instrumentation is: Flute, Clarinet in Bb, French Horn in F, and Bassoon.
(even though it says English horn on the instrumentation, there are notes that go below E. H. range. A basset horn could do it.).

Twelfth Street Rag   es una composición musical  ragtime  publicada por  Euday L. Bowman  en 1914. Años antes, un amigo de Bowman conocido solo como Raggedy Ed declaró su intención de abrir un  club de striptease  en la calle 12 mientras los dos caminaban . eso. Se rumorea que Bowman dijo: Si te haces rico en esas tres bolas, escribe una pieza en tres notas para hacerme rico. [1]  El resultado fue The 12th Street Rag, uno de los trapos más famosos y más vendidos de la era del ragtime.
