5.0 out of 5 stars The real McCoy, January 9, 2007

Duane R. (St. Albans, WV USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Joplin - Complete Rags for Piano (Schirmer's Library of Musical Classics) Vol. 2020 (Paperback)

These are the real McCoy, right down to Joplin's own tempo recommendations (the famous "Not too fast" adornes the Peacherine Rag, as in the original). If you want to tackle the master's own works, this is the place to go. Schirmer does a fine job in cataloging these masterpieces, and these are re-engravings of the original scores--crisp, clear and easy to read. This book also contains Joplin's syncopation exercises, helpful in understanding his work.

5.0 out of 5 stars a must have for ragtime lovers, August 31, 2007

Adrian Mrinda "the enthused musician" (Wausau, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Joplin - Complete Rags for Piano (Schirmer's Library of Musical Classics) Vol. 2020 (Paperback)

this product is a great convenience. It compiles all of Joplins rags in an easy-to-read format with authentic tips for playing each individual piece. It is definitely worth every penny; it's a great addition to any collection. Another interesting thing that this edition includes is the date that the piece was composed. If you want to find some awesome, fun music to play, you can never go wrong with Joplin.
