scott jopin (?), piano rag
on: January 25, 2015, 12:13:03 PM
Hello,
i discovered an interesting piano rag (excerpt attached) in f-sharp minor. It sounds to me like the composing style of Scott Joplin but I'm not sure if he's truly the composer.

Please help me to identify the rag and its composer's name.

Thank you.

it is a stride/ragtime version of Brahms Hungarian Dance #5.  It's not any Joplin rag I am aware of.

ohh, thank you. I knew the song was familiar to me.

Does anyone have the sheet music for this? If not, please let me know who arranged it and what the exact title is. Thanks.
