Rags Scott Joplin Didn't Write
Contributors: Euphemia Allen, George D. Barbard, John W. Boone, Louis Chauvin, Chas Hunter, J. Bodewalt Lampe, Henry Lodge & Tom Turpin FOREWORDThe latter half of the nineteenth century was a period of great development in American music. Ragtime became extremely popular and it dominated the popular music of the early twentieth century. One tends to imagine that Scott Joplin was the only ragtime composer but there were many others. The recent revival of ragtime has led to the rediscovery of many lost compositions. The manner in which ragtime developed is a matter of conjecture. Some suggest that the catalyst was 'Chopsticks' which was written by a 16 - year - old English girl, Euphemia Allen. It was published in 1877 and became an 'overnight success'. The technique needed to play it is in some ways similar to that which is needed for ragtime. Ragtime undoubtedly has Afro-American roots. The great ethno- musicologist Trebor Jay Tichenor has written that the end of the Civil War gave black musicians much greater access to keyboard instruments and that this was a factor in ragtime's development. It was, however, preceded by dances known as 'cakewalks'. They became all the rage and were so called because black couples would dress up in their finest clothes and parade about town - the best dressed were said to 'take the cake'. Needless to say, as ragtime developed, many prudes condemned it as the 'music of Satan' - one recalls similar reactions to 'rock and roll'. Ragtime achieved a vitality and spontaneity which transformed popular music. It led to a great craze for 'Animal Dances' - the foxtrot is all that remains. They had wonderful names like: 'The Grizzly Bear Rag', 'The Kangaroo Hop', 'The Rabbit's Foot', 'The Lobster Glide' among others. The ragtime era was remarkable and it was pivotal in the development of popular music. Classical composers fell under its spell - Debussy, Stravinsky - and its rhythmic intensity gave music a new life and excitement. Contemporary music owes it a great deal and its influence has been important and lasting. Colin Mawby Contents Alabama Dream George D.

Songs From The Sea For Trumpet
These 12 familiar sea shanties for trumpet, with piano accompaniment, by well-known composer and arranger, Colin Mawby remind us of the important naval tradition of many countries. He recommends that they are played with vitality, excitement and panache.ContentsBlow the man downBlow the wind southerlyBobby ShaftoeBound to the Rio GrandeFire down belowHighland laddieMy bonnie lies over the oceanPay me the money downSacramentoThe keel rowThe saucy ArethusaWhat shall we do with the drunken sailor?FOREWORDThere is a long and ancient tradition of sea shanties. They were used to assist sailors in the difficult task of manning sailing ships. Just as much as dancing helped to keep seamen fit, so the shanty was sung to lighten the physical strain of working in often brutal conditions.The rhythm of the songs fitted the rhythm of the job and it helped to create a very necessary sense of team spirit. Each task had its own shanty. They were usually sung by a leader (the Shantyman) with the sailors singing the chorus as they worked. Jobs like raising the anchors, hoisting the sails or manning the capstan were hard, back-breaking work. Shanties encouraged the men to keep at it!These arrangements should be played with vitality and excitement. You are reliving a very important part of the naval tradition of many seafaring countries
