Summary

Description

James Scott is known as one of the greatest rag writers of all time. Scott Joplin was so impressed with the young man he introduced him to his own publisher, John Stark, who published most of his compositions thereafter. This is one of his late rags, coming as the ragtime era was mostly over but still a high quality rag. Published by Stark Music in St. Louis, Missouri in 1918.

Original score source was from the Charles Templeton Sheet Music Collection at Mississippi State University at this link: https://scholarsjunction.msstate.edu/cht-sheet-music/5516/ This is a reproduction of the original score. I have added ties at measure 19; at measure 58 I've changed the middle note of the third right-hand chord from E natural to F. I've reformatted the crowded two page score out to four pages.

Thanks to Musescore's JohnJ1995 for this excellent suggestion.
