piano sheet music for Maple Leaf Rag

Quoted: The "Maple Leaf Rag" (1897) is an early Ragtime composition for piano by Scott Joplin. It was one of Joplin's early works, and is one of the most famous of all Ragtime pieces. In 1916, Joplin recorded the Maple Leaf Rag on a piano roll on the Connorized label, along with his other ragtime pieces - Something Doing, Magnetic Rag, Ole Miss Rag, Weeping Willow and Pleasant Moments - Ragtime Waltz.

For Shiwani.

This is the previous keyboard I dotted with bench, headphones, and stand for $343.99.

Quoted: Of course, a graded action is one of the primary features sought by digital piano buyers because of its similarity to acoustic pianos. While technically a non-weighted action, the new Graded Soft-Touch keyboard is the first of its kind to bring different levels of resistance without the extra weight of moving hammers... the key contributor to the NP30's fighting weight of only 12 pounds. The end result is a very playable action that will appeal to pianists who want to take their music anywhere.

For Shiwani. $299, 76 keys.

Quoted: The NP30 offers Yamaha's first-ever Graded Touch semi-weighed key action. While the touch is lighter than the Graded Hammer Standard and Graded Hammer Effect actions of the more robust digital piano models, Graded Touch provides medium resistance in the left hand that gets lighter as you move up the keyboard allowing faster passages with your right hand.

Interesting. There are no recordings of Joplin, but you can *hear* him through his piano rolls. However, on NPR, they were saying there is some controversy as to whether some of these rolls were really made by Joplin.

Quoted: Despite this, he recorded six piano rolls that year — Maple Leaf Rag (for Connorized and Uni-Record labels), Something Doing, Magnetic Rag, Ole Miss Rag, and Pleasant Moments (all for Connorized). These are the only records of his playing we have, and are interesting for the embellishments added by Joplin to his performances. A surviving copy of the 'Pleasant Moments' roll has not yet been discovered. It has been claimed that the uneven nature of some of Joplin's piano rolls, such as one of the recordings of the Maple Leaf Rag mentioned above, documented the extent of Joplin's physical deterioration due to syphilis. However, the irregularities are just as likely due to the primitive technology used to record the rolls.

Distinction between the new/cheaper p70 and the older p60. Good to hear the keyboard action is the same.

Quoted: Saw one at the local music store recently. Essentially a P60 with no line output (only speakers/headphone), and less speaker power (6 instead of 8 ...
