Fingering a Joplin Rag
on: June 13, 2006, 12:57:21 PM
I am working on Weeping Willow and in dire need of the right handed fingering throughout.

(I know, I know, it's way out of my league, but I have alotted 5 months of concentrated study to learn to play the piece properly.)

Assuming someone is kind enough to help, how do I provide that person with the sheet music? My scans make pitifully small image as attachments.

Give me a day or so and I'll e-mail the music with the fingerings to you.

Cheers

Here is the sheet music for Weeping Willow. I scanned it from my personal collection and put in the fingerings I used to use when I played it.

I decided to post it for anyone else who may want it.

I hope the fingerings will work for you.

Enjoy!
