Cinders by Joseph F. Lamb Wikipedia: Joseph Francis Lamb was an American composer of ragtime music. Lamb, of Irish descent, was the only non-African American of the "Big Three" composers of classical ragtime, the other two being Scott Joplin and James Scott. The ragtime of Joseph Lamb ranges from standard popular fare to complex and highly engaging. His use of long phrases was influenced by classical works he had learned from his sister and others while growing up, but his sense of structure was potentially derived from his study of Joplin's piano rags. By the time he added some polish to his later works in the 1950s, Lamb had mastered the classic rag genre in a way that almost no other composer was able to approach at that time, and continued to play it passably as well, as evidenced by at least two separate recordings done in his home, as well as a few recorded interviews. Lamb was born in Montclair, New Jersey. The youngest of four children, he taught himself to play the piano and admired the early ragtime publications of Scott Joplin. He dropped out of St. Jerome's College in 1904 to work for a dry goods company. He met Joplin in 1907 while purchasing the latest Joplin and Scott sheet music in the offices of John Stark & Son. Joplin was impressed with Lamb's compositions and recommended him to ragtime publisher John Stark. Stark published Lamb's music for the next decade, starting with "Sensation".

As yet, no short cut has ever been discovered." - Joseph F.

Fascination by James P. Johnson Sequenced and Arranged by: John Farrell Wikipedia: James Price Johnson (February 1, 1894 – November 17, 1955) was an American pianist and composer. A pioneer of stride piano, he was one of the most important pianists in the early era of recording, and like Jelly Roll Morton, one of the key figures in the evolution of ragtime into what was eventually called jazz. Johnson was a major influence on Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Art Tatum, and Fats Waller, who was his student. Johnson composed many hit songs, including the unofficial anthem of the Roaring Twenties, "The Charleston," and he remained the acknowledged king of New York jazz pianists through most of the 1930s. Johnson's artistry, influence on early popular music, and contributions to musical theatre are often overlooked, and as such, he has been referred to by musicologist David Schiff as "The Invisible Pianist." Johnson was born in New Brunswick, New Jersey, United States. The proximity to New York City meant that the full cosmopolitan spectrum of the city's musical experience, from bars, to cabarets, to the symphony, were at the young Johnson's disposal. Johnson's father, William H. Johnson, was a store helper and mechanic while his mother, Josephine Harrison was a maid. Harrison was a part of the choir at the Methodist Church and was also a self-taught pianist. Johnson later cited the popular African-American songs and dances he heard at home and around the city as early influences on his musical taste. In 1908, Johnson's family moved to the San Juan Hill (near where Lincoln Center stands today) section of New York City and subsequently moved again to uptown in 1911. With perfect pitch and excellent recall he was soon able to pick out the piano tunes that he had heard. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ►Follow me on Instagram 📸: http://instagram.com/its.Remco ►Follow me on Reddit 🤖: http://reddit.com/user/its_remco ►Add me on Discord 💻: itsRemco # 0827 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My free practice recommendations I use myself: ►Perfect Ear app to train your hearing (Android & IOS) 👂🏽: http://gestyy.com/w65gXL ►Complete Music Reading Trainer (Only Android) 👀: http://gestyy.com/w65jdn ►Hanon exercises to improve the piano fingerwork 🖐🏽: http://gestyy.com/w64QhM ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Things I recommend that I paid for to practice Jazz Piano: ►My current digital piano is the Roland RP501r 🎹: https://amzn.to/2QB4SvG ►iReal Pro app to practice with backing tracks 📲: https://amzn.to/2MS0Ca3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #jamespjohnson #fascination #stridepiano #blues #swing #swingpiano #stride #fatherofstridepiano #earlyjazz #bluespiano #earlyjazzpiano #jazz #jamesp #charlestonpiano #itsRemco

Pleasant Moments Waltz by Scott Joplin Sequenced by: Warren S. Trachtman Wikipedia: Scott Joplin was an American composer and pianist. Joplin achieved fame for his ragtime compositions and was dubbed the King of Ragtime. During his brief career, he wrote 44 original ragtime pieces, one ragtime ballet, and two operas. One of his first and most popular pieces, the "Maple Leaf Rag", became ragtime's first and most influential hit, and has been recognized as the archetypal rag. Joplin grew up in a musical family of railway laborers in Texarkana, Arkansas, and developed his own musical knowledge with the help of local teachers. While in Texarkana, Texas, he formed a vocal quartet and taught mandolin and guitar. During the late 1880s he left his job as a railroad laborer and travelled the American South as an itinerant musician. He went to Chicago for the World's Fair of 1893, which played a major part in making ragtime a national craze by 1897. Joplin moved to Sedalia, Missouri, in 1894 and earned a living as a piano teacher. There he taught future ragtime composers Arthur Marshall, Scott Hayden and Brun Campbell. He began publishing music in 1895, and publication of his "Maple Leaf Rag" in 1899 brought him fame. This piece had a profound influence on writers of ragtime. It also brought Joplin a steady income for life, though he did not reach this level of success again and frequently had financial problems. In 1901 Joplin moved to St. Louis, where he continued to compose and publish, and regularly performed in the community. The score to his first opera A Guest of Honor was confiscated in 1903 with his belongings for non-payment of bills, and is now considered lost. In 1907, Joplin moved to New York City to find a producer for a new opera. He attempted to go beyond the limitations of the musical form that made him famous, but without much monetary success. His second opera, Treemonisha, was never fully staged during his lifetime. In 1916, Joplin descended into dementia as a result of syphilis. He was admitted to a mental institution in January 1917, and died there three months later at the age of 48. Joplin's death is widely considered to mark the end of ragtime as a mainstream music format; over the next several years, it evolved with other styles into stride, jazz, and eventually big band swing. Joplin's music was rediscovered and returned to popularity in the early 1970s with the release of a million-selling album recorded by Joshua Rifkin. This was followed by the Academy Award-winning 1973 film The Sting that featured several of Joplin's compositions, most notably "The Entertainer", whose performance by pianist Marvin Hamlisch received wide airplay. Treemonisha was finally produced in full, to wide acclaim, in 1972. In 1976, Joplin was posthumously awarded a Pulitzer Prize.

On The Pike by James Scott Sequenced by Warren S. Trachtman Wikipedia: James Sylvester Scott was an American ragtime composer and pianist, regarded as one of the three most important composers of classic ragtime, along with Scott Joplin and Joseph Lamb. He was born in Neosho, Missouri to James Scott, Sr. and Molly Thomas Scott, both former slaves. In 1901 his family moved to Carthage, Missouri, where he attended Lincoln High School. In 1902 he began working at the music store of Charles L. Dumars, first washing windows, then demonstrating music at the piano as a song plugger, including his own pieces. Demand for his music convinced Dumars to print the first of Scott's published compositions, "A Summer Breeze - March and Two Step", in 1903. By 1904, two more compositions by Scott, "Fascinator March" and "On the Pike March" were published and sold well, but not enough to keep Dumars in business and soon the company ceased publishing. James Scott's 1904 "On the Pike", which refers to the midway of the St. Louis World's Fair of 1904. Ragtime Historians Rudi Blesh and Harriet Janis recount that Scott went to St. Louis, Missouri in search of his idol Scott Joplin in 1905. He located Joplin and asked if he would listen to one of his ragtime compositions. Upon hearing the rag, Joplin introduced him to his own publisher, John Stillwell Stark, and recommended he publish the work. Stark published the rag a year later as "Frog Legs Rag". It quickly became a hit and was second in sales in the Stark catalogue only to that of Joplin's own "Maple Leaf Rag". Scott became a regular contributor to the Stark catalogue until 1922. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ►Follow me on Instagram 📸: http://instagram.com/its.Remco ►Follow me on Reddit 🤖: http://reddit.com/user/its_remco ►Add me on Discord 💻: itsRemco # 0827 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My free practice recommendations I use myself: ►Perfect Ear app to train your hearing (Android & IOS) 👂🏽: http://gestyy.com/w65gXL ►Complete Music Reading Trainer (Only Android) 👀: http://gestyy.com/w65jdn ►Hanon exercises to improve the piano fingerwork 🖐🏽: http://gestyy.com/w64QhM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Things I recommend that I paid for to practice Jazz Piano: ►My current digital piano is the Roland RP501r 🎹: https://amzn.to/2QB4SvG ►iReal Pro app to practice with backing tracks 📲: https://amzn.to/2MS0Ca3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #ragtime #onthepike #jamesscott #synthesia #prejazz #ragtimepiano #ragtime #pianosyncopation #ragtimecomposer #ragtimepiano #synthesia #ragtimesynthesia #solopiano #ragtimetutorial #itsremco

What Is This Thing Called Love by Erroll Garner Transcribed by Paul Marcorelles from @blueblackjazz check out the transcription: https://blueblackjazz.com/en/transcription/233/233-erroll-garner-what-is-this-thing-called-love-c-maj-transcription-pdf And of course check out his site for all available transcriptions: https://www.blueblackjazz.com Original recording: https://youtu.be/Dn1AaVA5epo Wikipedia: Erroll Louis Garner was an American jazz pianist and composer known for his swing playing and ballads. His best-known composition, the ballad "Misty", has become a jazz standard. Scott Yanow of Allmusic calls him "one of the most distinctive of all pianists" and a "brilliant virtuoso." He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6363 Hollywood Blvd. His live album, Concert by the Sea, first released in 1955, sold over a million copies by 1958 and Scott Yanow's opinion is: "this is the album that made such a strong impression that Garner was considered immortal from then on." Garner was born with his twin brother Ernest in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on June 15, 1921, the youngest of six children in an African-American family. He attended George Westinghouse High School (as did fellow pianists Billy Strayhorn and Ahmad Jamal). Interviews with his family and music teachers (and with other musicians), plus a detailed family tree are given in Erroll Garner: The Most Happy Piano by James M Doran. Garner began playing piano at the age of three. His elder siblings were taught piano by Miss Bowman. From an early age, Erroll would sit down and play anything she had demonstrated, just like Miss Bowman, his eldest sister Martha said. Garner was self-taught and remained an "ear player" all his life, never learning to read music. At age seven, he began appearing on the radio station KDKA in Pittsburgh with a group called the Candy Kids. By age 11, he was playing on the Allegheny riverboats. In 1937 he joined local saxophonist Leroy Brown. He played locally in the shadow of his older pianist brother Linton Garner. This video quote: "I get ideas from everything. A big color, the sound of water and wind, or a flash of something cool. Playing is like life.

Tin Roof Blues by Jelly Roll Morton Original Recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n106FuPvxKA Piano Roll: Vocalstyle Song Roll-12974 Wikipedia: Ferdinand Joseph LaMothe, known professionally as Jelly Roll Morton, was an American ragtime and early jazz pianist, bandleader and composer who started his career in New Orleans, Louisiana. Widely recognized as a pivotal figure in early jazz, Morton was jazz's first arranger, proving that a genre rooted in improvisation could retain its essential spirit and characteristics when notated. His composition "Jelly Roll Blues", published in 1915, was the first published jazz composition. Morton also wrote the standards "King Porter Stomp", "Wolverine Blues", "Black Bottom Stomp", and "I Thought I Heard Buddy Bolden Say", the last a tribute to New Orleans musicians from the turn of the 20th century. Morton's claim to have invented jazz in 1902 aroused resentment. The jazz historian, musician, and composer Gunther Schuller says of Morton's "hyperbolic assertions" that there is "no proof to the contrary" and that Morton's "considerable accomplishments in themselves provide reasonable substantiation". Alan Lomax, who recorded extensive biographical interviews of Morton at the Library of Congress in 1938, did not agree that Morton was an egotist: In being called a supreme egotist, Jelly Roll was often a victim of loose and lurid reporting. If we read the words that he himself wrote, we learn that he almost had an inferiority complex and said that he created his own style of jazz piano because "All my fellow musicians were much faster in manipulations, I thought than I, and I did not feel as though I was in their class." So he used a slower tempo to permit flexibility through the use of more notes, a pinch of Spanish to give a number of right seasoning, the avoidance of playing triple forte continuously, and many other points". --Quoted in John Szwed, Dr Jazz. This video quote: "I do not claim any of the creation of the blues, although I have written many of them even before Mr. Handy had any blues published. I heard them when I was knee-high to a duck." - Jelly Roll Morton ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ►Follow me on Instagram 📸: http://instagram.com/its.Remco ►Follow me on Reddit 🤖: http://reddit.com/user/its_remco ►Add me on Discord 💻: itsRemco # 0827 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My free practice recommendations I use myself: ►Perfect Ear app to train your hearing (Android & IOS) 👂🏽: http://gestyy.com/w65gXL ►Complete Music Reading Trainer (Only Android) 👀: http://gestyy.com/w65jdn ►Hanon exercises to improve the piano fingerwork 🖐🏽: http://gestyy.com/w64QhM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Things I recommend that I paid for to practice Jazz Piano: ►My current digital piano is the Roland RP501r 🎹: https://amzn.to/2QB4SvG ►iReal Pro app to practice with backing tracks 📲: https://amzn.to/2MS0Ca3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #jellyrollmorton #tinroofblues #earlyjazz #synthesia #synthesiatutorial #ragtime #classicjazz #classicjazzpiano #soloclassicjazzpiano #synthesia #latinjazz #jellyrollmortonrecordings #ragtimepiano #itsRemco

I'm Coming Virginia by Thomas "Fats" Waller Original recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64eutVoRbS4 Info about Fats Waller: Fats Waller (May 21, 1904 – December 15, 1943) was the son of a preacher and learned to play the organ in church with his mother. In 1918 he won a talent contest playing James P. Johnson’s “Carolina Shout” which he learned from watching a pianola play the song. He would later take piano lessons from Johnson. Fats began his recording career in 1922 and made a living playing rent parties, as an organist at movie theatres and as an accompanist for various vaudeville acts. In 1927 he co-wrote a couple of tunes with his old piano teacher James P. Johnson for his show Keep Shufflin’. Two years later Waller wrote the score for the Broadway hit Hot Chocolates with lyrics supplied by his friend Andy Razaf. Fats’ most famous song, “Ain’t Misbehavin'” was introduced in this show which featured Louis Armstrong. Fats Waller’s big break occurred at a party given by George Gershwin in 1934, where he delighted the crowd with his piano playing and singing. An executive of Victor Records, who was at the party was so impressed that he arranged for Fats to record with the company. This arrangement would continue until Waller’s death in 1943. Most of the records he made were released under the name of Fats Waller and his Rhythm. The group consisted of around half a dozen musicians who worked with him regularly, including Zutty Singleton. Throughout the 1930s and early 1940s Fats was a star of radio and nightclubs, and toured Europe. He unexpectedtly died on board a train near Kansas City, Missouri of pneumonia in 1943.

In 1902 he began working at the music store of Charles L. Dumars, first washing windows, then demonstrating music at the piano as a song plugger, including his own pieces. Demand for his music convinced Dumars to print the first of Scott's published compositions, "A Summer Breeze - March and Two Step", in 1903. By 1904, two more compositions by Scott, "Fascinator March" and "On the Pike March" were published and sold well, but not enough to keep Dumars in business and soon the company ceased publishing. James Scott's 1904 "On the Pike", which refers to the midway of the St. Louis World's Fair of 1904. Ragtime Historians Rudi Blesh and Harriet Janis recount that Scott went to St. Louis, Missouri in search of his idol Scott Joplin in 1905. He located Joplin and asked if he would listen to one of his ragtime compositions. Upon hearing the rag, Joplin introduced him to his own publisher, John Stillwell Stark, and recommended he publish the work. Stark published the rag a year later as "Frog Legs Rag". It quickly became a hit and was second in sales in the Stark catalogue only to that of Joplin's own "Maple Leaf Rag". Scott became a regular contributor to the Stark catalogue until 1922. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ►Follow me on Instagram 📸: http://instagram.com/its.Remco ►Follow me on Reddit 🤖: http://reddit.com/user/its_remco ►Add me on Discord 💻: itsRemco # 0827 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My free practice recommendations I use myself: ►Perfect Ear app to train your hearing (Android & IOS) 👂🏽: http://gestyy.com/w65gXL ►Complete Music Reading Trainer (Only Android) 👀: http://gestyy.com/w65jdn ►Hanon exercises to improve the piano fingerwork 🖐🏽: http://gestyy.com/w64QhM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Things I recommend that I paid for to practice Jazz Piano: ►My current digital piano is the Roland RP501r 🎹: https://amzn.to/2QB4SvG ►iReal Pro app to practice with backing tracks 📲: https://amzn.to/2MS0Ca3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #ragtime #caliloperag #jamesscott #synthesia #prejazz #ragtimepiano #ragtime #pianosyncopation #ragtimecomposer #ragtimepiano #synthesia #ragtimesynthesia #solopiano #ragtimetutorial #itsremco

Described by critic Scott Yanow as "the definitive swing pianist", Wilson's sophisticated and elegant style was featured on the records of many of the biggest names in jazz, including Louis Armstrong, Lena Horne, Benny Goodman, Billie Holiday, and Ella Fitzgerald. With Goodman, he was one of the first black musicians to appear prominently with white musicians. In addition to his extensive work as a sideman, Wilson also led his own groups and recording sessions from the late 1920s to the 1980s. Wilson was born in Austin, Texas, on November 24, 1912. He studied piano and violin at Tuskegee Institute in Tuskegee, Alabama. After working in Speed Webb's band, with Louis Armstrong, and also understudying Earl Hines in Hines's Grand Terrace Cafe Orchestra, Wilson joined Benny Carter's Chocolate Dandies in 1933. In 1935, he joined the Benny Goodman Trio (which consisted of Goodman, Wilson and drummer Gene Krupa, later expanded to the Benny Goodman Quartet with the addition of Lionel Hampton). The trio performed during the big band's intermissions. By joining the trio, Wilson became one of the first black musicians to perform prominently in a racially integrated group.

Boogie Woogie Boogie by Erroll Garner Transcribed by Paul Marcorelles from @blueblackjazz check out the transcription: https://blueblackjazz.com/en/transcription/221/221-erroll-garner-boogie-woogie-boogie-d-min-transcription-pdf And of course check out his site for all available transcriptions: https://www.blueblackjazz.com Original recording: https://youtu.be/ZNBnzH0dPXc Wikipedia: Erroll Louis Garner was an American jazz pianist and composer known for his swing playing and ballads. His best-known composition, the ballad "Misty", has become a jazz standard. Scott Yanow of Allmusic calls him "one of the most distinctive of all pianists" and a "brilliant virtuoso." He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6363 Hollywood Blvd. His live album, Concert by the Sea, first released in 1955, sold over a million copies by 1958 and Scott Yanow's opinion is: "this is the album that made such a strong impression that Garner was considered immortal from then on." Garner was born with his twin brother Ernest in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on June 15, 1921, the youngest of six children in an African-American family. He attended George Westinghouse High School (as did fellow pianists Billy Strayhorn and Ahmad Jamal). Interviews with his family and music teachers (and with other musicians), plus a detailed family tree are given in Erroll Garner: The Most Happy Piano by James M Doran. Garner began playing piano at the age of three. His elder siblings were taught piano by Miss Bowman. From an early age, Erroll would sit down and play anything she had demonstrated, just like Miss Bowman, his eldest sister Martha said. Garner was self-taught and remained an "ear player" all his life, never learning to read music. At age seven, he began appearing on the radio station KDKA in Pittsburgh with a group called the Candy Kids. By age 11, he was playing on the Allegheny riverboats. In 1937 he joined local saxophonist Leroy Brown. He played locally in the shadow of his older pianist brother Linton Garner. This video quote: "I get ideas from everything. A big color, the sound of water and wind, or a flash of something cool. Playing is like life. Either you feel it or you don't." - Erroll Garner @errollgarnerofficial ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ►Follow me on Instagram 📸: http://instagram.com/its.Remco ►Follow me on Reddit 🤖: http://reddit.com/user/its_remco ►Add me on Discord 💻: itsRemco # 0827 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My free practice recommendations I use myself: ►Perfect Ear app to train your hearing (Android & IOS) 👂🏽: http://gestyy.com/w65gXL ►Complete Music Reading Trainer (Only Android) 👀: http://gestyy.com/w65jdn ►Hanon exercises to improve the piano fingerwork 🖐🏽: http://gestyy.com/w64QhM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Things I recommend that I paid for to practice Jazz Piano: ►My current digital piano is the Roland RP501r 🎹: https://amzn.to/2QB4SvG ►iReal Pro app to practice with backing tracks 📲: https://amzn.to/2MS0Ca3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #errollgarner #boogiewoogieboogie #boogiewoogie #jazzpiano #errollgarnertutorial #errollgarnerpiano #pianojazz #boogiewoogiepiano #synthesia #erroll #garner #blueblackjazz #jazz #solopiano #itsRemco

Thomas "Fats" Waller Rhythm Medley No. 1: Hold My Hand | Don't Let It Bother You | There's Honey On The Moon Tonight | Sing An Old Fashioned Song Sequenced by: John Farrell Info about Fats Waller: Fats Waller (May 21, 1904 – December 15, 1943) was the son of a preacher and learned to play the organ in church with his mother. In 1918 he won a talent contest playing James P. Johnson’s “Carolina Shout” which he learned from watching a pianola play the song. He would later take piano lessons from Johnson. Fats began his recording career in 1922 and made a living playing rent parties, as an organist at movie theatres and as an accompanist for various vaudeville acts. In 1927 he co-wrote a couple of tunes with his old piano teacher James P. Johnson for his show Keep Shufflin’. Two years later Waller wrote the score for the Broadway hit Hot Chocolates with lyrics supplied by his friend Andy Razaf. Fats’ most famous song, “Ain’t Misbehavin'” was introduced in this show which featured Louis Armstrong. Fats Waller’s big break occurred at a party given by George Gershwin in 1934, where he delighted the crowd with his piano playing and singing. An executive of Victor Records, who was at the party was so impressed that he arranged for Fats to record with the company. This arrangement would continue until Waller’s death in 1943. Most of the records he made were released under the name of Fats Waller and his Rhythm. The group consisted of around half a dozen musicians who worked with him regularly, including Zutty Singleton. Throughout the 1930s and early 1940s Fats was a star of radio and nightclubs, and toured Europe. He unexpectedtly died on board a train near Kansas City, Missouri of pneumonia in 1943.

Short documentary about Scott Joplin by Amelia Anderson Info about the short documentary: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8693066/?ref_=fn_al_tt_28 Published by: Santa Monica, Calif. : Pyramid Films Wikipedia: Scott Joplin was an American composer and pianist. Joplin achieved fame for his ragtime compositions and was dubbed the King of Ragtime. During his brief career, he wrote 44 original ragtime pieces, one ragtime ballet, and two operas. One of his first and most popular pieces, the "Maple Leaf Rag", became ragtime's first and most influential hit, and has been recognized as the archetypal rag. Joplin grew up in a musical family of railway laborers in Texarkana, Arkansas, and developed his own musical knowledge with the help of local teachers. While in Texarkana, Texas, he formed a vocal quartet and taught mandolin and guitar. During the late 1880s he left his job as a railroad laborer and travelled the American South as an itinerant musician. He went to Chicago for the World's Fair of 1893, which played a major part in making ragtime a national craze by 1897. Joplin moved to Sedalia, Missouri, in 1894 and earned a living as a piano teacher. There he taught future ragtime composers Arthur Marshall, Scott Hayden and Brun Campbell. He began publishing music in 1895, and publication of his "Maple Leaf Rag" in 1899 brought him fame. This piece had a profound influence on writers of ragtime. It also brought Joplin a steady income for life, though he did not reach this level of success again and frequently had financial problems. In 1901 Joplin moved to St. Louis, where he continued to compose and publish, and regularly performed in the community. The score to his first opera A Guest of Honor was confiscated in 1903 with his belongings for non-payment of bills, and is now considered lost. In 1907, Joplin moved to New York City to find a producer for a new opera. He attempted to go beyond the limitations of the musical form that made him famous, but without much monetary success. His second opera, Treemonisha, was never fully staged during his lifetime. In 1916, Joplin descended into dementia as a result of syphilis. He was admitted to a mental institution in January 1917, and died there three months later at the age of 48. Joplin's death is widely considered to mark the end of ragtime as a mainstream music format; over the next several years, it evolved with other styles into stride, jazz, and eventually big band swing. Joplin's music was rediscovered and returned to popularity in the early 1970s with the release of a million-selling album recorded by Joshua Rifkin. This was followed by the Academy Award-winning 1973 film The Sting that featured several of Joplin's compositions, most notably "The Entertainer", whose performance by pianist Marvin Hamlisch received wide airplay. Treemonisha was finally produced in full, to wide acclaim, in 1972. In 1976, Joplin was posthumously awarded a Pulitzer Prize. I do not own the rights to this documentary.

Described by critic Scott Yanow as "the definitive swing pianist", Wilson's sophisticated and elegant style was featured on the records of many of the biggest names in jazz, including Louis Armstrong, Lena Horne, Benny Goodman, Billie Holiday, and Ella Fitzgerald. With Goodman, he was one of the first black musicians to appear prominently with white musicians. In addition to his extensive work as a sideman, Wilson also led his own groups and recording sessions from the late 1920s to the 1980s. Wilson was born in Austin, Texas, on November 24, 1912. He studied piano and violin at Tuskegee Institute in Tuskegee, Alabama. After working in Speed Webb's band, with Louis Armstrong, and also understudying Earl Hines in Hines's Grand Terrace Cafe Orchestra, Wilson joined Benny Carter's Chocolate Dandies in 1933. In 1935, he joined the Benny Goodman Trio (which consisted of Goodman, Wilson and drummer Gene Krupa, later expanded to the Benny Goodman Quartet with the addition of Lionel Hampton). The trio performed during the big band's intermissions. By joining the trio, Wilson became one of the first black musicians to perform prominently in a racially integrated group.

Euphonic Sounds by Scott Joplin Sequenced by: Warren S. Trachtman Wikipedia: Scott Joplin was an American composer and pianist. Joplin achieved fame for his ragtime compositions and was dubbed the King of Ragtime. During his brief career, he wrote 44 original ragtime pieces, one ragtime ballet, and two operas. One of his first and most popular pieces, the "Maple Leaf Rag", became ragtime's first and most influential hit, and has been recognized as the archetypal rag. Joplin grew up in a musical family of railway laborers in Texarkana, Arkansas, and developed his own musical knowledge with the help of local teachers. While in Texarkana, Texas, he formed a vocal quartet and taught mandolin and guitar. During the late 1880s he left his job as a railroad laborer and travelled the American South as an itinerant musician. He went to Chicago for the World's Fair of 1893, which played a major part in making ragtime a national craze by 1897. Joplin moved to Sedalia, Missouri, in 1894 and earned a living as a piano teacher. There he taught future ragtime composers Arthur Marshall, Scott Hayden and Brun Campbell. He began publishing music in 1895, and publication of his "Maple Leaf Rag" in 1899 brought him fame. This piece had a profound influence on writers of ragtime. It also brought Joplin a steady income for life, though he did not reach this level of success again and frequently had financial problems. In 1901 Joplin moved to St. Louis, where he continued to compose and publish, and regularly performed in the community. The score to his first opera A Guest of Honor was confiscated in 1903 with his belongings for non-payment of bills, and is now considered lost. In 1907, Joplin moved to New York City to find a producer for a new opera. He attempted to go beyond the limitations of the musical form that made him famous, but without much monetary success. His second opera, Treemonisha, was never fully staged during his lifetime. In 1916, Joplin descended into dementia as a result of syphilis. He was admitted to a mental institution in January 1917, and died there three months later at the age of 48. Joplin's death is widely considered to mark the end of ragtime as a mainstream music format; over the next several years, it evolved with other styles into stride, jazz, and eventually big band swing. Joplin's music was rediscovered and returned to popularity in the early 1970s with the release of a million-selling album recorded by Joshua Rifkin. This was followed by the Academy Award-winning 1973 film The Sting that featured several of Joplin's compositions, most notably "The Entertainer", whose performance by pianist Marvin Hamlisch received wide airplay. Treemonisha was finally produced in full, to wide acclaim, in 1972. In 1976, Joplin was posthumously awarded a Pulitzer Prize.

I'll Dance At Your Wedding by Ralph Sutton Transcribed by Paul Marcorelles from @blueblackjazz check out the transcription: https://blueblackjazz.com/en/transcription/300/300-ralph-sutton-i-ll-dance-at-your-wedding-bb-maj-transcription-pdf And of course check out his site for all available transcriptions: https://www.blueblackjazz.com Original recording: https://youtu.be/f2Dqve_Ye-o Wikipedia: Ralph Earl Sutton was an American jazz pianist born in Hamburg, Missouri. He was a stride pianist in the tradition of James P. Johnson and Fats Waller. Sutton was born in Hamburg, Missouri, United States, the son of Earl and Edna Sutton. His younger sister Barbara Sutton Curtis was also a jazz pianist. Sutton had a stint as a session musician with Jack Teagarden's band, before joining the US Army during World War II. After the war, he played at various venues in Missouri, eventually ending up at Eddie Condon's club in Greenwich Village. In 1956, he relocated to San Francisco, California, where he recorded several albums with Bob Scobey's dixieland band. From the 1960s onward, he worked mostly on his own. However, when the World's Greatest Jazz Band was established in 1968, he was the natural choice for piano. He left that band in 1974 due to the extensive travel involved, and joined an old sidekick, Peanuts Hucko, in a quartet in Denver, near his home in Evergreen, Colorado.  Fellow jazz pianist Jess Stacy said this about Ralph Sutton: "He is a superb piano player and a great guy. There's nothing upstage about him. I really admire the way he plays. He's one of the few piano players who uses both hands, and it's sure nice to know that a player like Ralph is still around. I can't say enough good things about him. He's one of the greats, and I hope he gets the recognition he deserves." Sutton died of a stroke in Evergreen, Colorado at the age of 79. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ►Follow me on Instagram 📸: http://instagram.com/its.Remco ►Follow me on Reddit 🤖: http://reddit.com/user/its_remco ►Add me on Discord 💻: itsRemco # 0827 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My free practice recommendations I use myself: ►Perfect Ear app to train your hearing (Android & IOS) 👂🏽: http://gestyy.com/w65gXL ►Complete Music Reading Trainer (Only Android) 👀: http://gestyy.com/w65jdn ►Hanon exercises to improve the piano fingerwork 🖐🏽: http://gestyy.com/w64QhM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Things I recommend that I paid for to practice Jazz Piano: ►My current digital piano is the Roland RP501r 🎹: https://amzn.to/2QB4SvG ►iReal Pro app to practice with backing tracks 📲: https://amzn.to/2MS0Ca3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #stridepiano #ralphsutton #illdanceatyourwedding #oldjazz #swingpiano #pianotutorial #earlyjazz #classicjazz #synthesia #classicjazzpiano #faststridepiano #roaringtwenties #syncopation #solopiano #solopianojazz

Kansas City Stomp by Jelly Roll Morton Transcribed by Paul Marcorelles from @blueblackjazz check out the transcription: https://blueblackjazz.com/en/transcription/181/181-jelly-roll-morton-kansas-city-stomp-f-maj-transcription-pdf And of course check out his site for all available transcriptions: https://www.blueblackjazz.com Original recording: https://youtu.be/yLYyhQx4USA Wikipedia: Ferdinand Joseph LaMothe, known professionally as Jelly Roll Morton, was an American ragtime and early jazz pianist, bandleader and composer who started his career in New Orleans, Louisiana. Widely recognized as a pivotal figure in early jazz, Morton was jazz's first arranger, proving that a genre rooted in improvisation could retain its essential spirit and characteristics when notated. His composition "Jelly Roll Blues", published in 1915, was the first published jazz composition. Morton also wrote the standards "King Porter Stomp", "Wolverine Blues", "Black Bottom Stomp", and "I Thought I Heard Buddy Bolden Say", the last a tribute to New Orleans musicians from the turn of the 20th century. Morton's claim to have invented jazz in 1902 aroused resentment. The jazz historian, musician, and composer Gunther Schuller says of Morton's "hyperbolic assertions" that there is "no proof to the contrary" and that Morton's "considerable accomplishments in themselves provide reasonable substantiation". Alan Lomax, who recorded extensive biographical interviews of Morton at the Library of Congress in 1938, did not agree that Morton was an egotist: In being called a supreme egotist, Jelly Roll was often a victim of loose and lurid reporting. If we read the words that he himself wrote, we learn that he almost had an inferiority complex and said that he created his own style of jazz piano because "All my fellow musicians were much faster in manipulations, I thought than I, and I did not feel as though I was in their class." So he used a slower tempo to permit flexibility through the use of more notes, a pinch of Spanish to give a number of right seasoning, the avoidance of playing triple forte continuously, and many other points". --Quoted in John Szwed, Dr Jazz.

You hurtin' its feelings." - Jelly Roll Morton ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ►Follow me on Instagram 📸: http://instagram.com/its.Remco ►Follow me on Reddit 🤖: http://reddit.com/user/its_remco ►Add me on Discord 💻: itsRemco # 0827 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My free practice recommendations I use myself: ►Perfect Ear app to train your hearing (Android & IOS) 👂🏽: http://gestyy.com/w65gXL ►Complete Music Reading Trainer (Only Android) 👀: http://gestyy.com/w65jdn ►Hanon exercises to improve the piano fingerwork 🖐🏽: http://gestyy.com/w64QhM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Things I recommend that I paid for to practice Jazz Piano: ►My current digital piano is the Roland RP501r 🎹: https://amzn.to/2QB4SvG ►iReal Pro app to practice with backing tracks 📲: https://amzn.to/2MS0Ca3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #jellyrollmorton #kansascitystomp #earlyjazz #synthesia #synthesiatutorial #ragtime #classicjazz #classicjazzpiano #soloclassicjazzpiano #synthesia #latinjazz #jellyrollmortonrecordings #ragtimepiano #itsRemco
