| Ajoutée par jacobcracker, 23 Déc 2015 This has been typeset to match the sheet music in the public domain in the EU available on the IMSLP http://imslp.org/wiki/Silver_Swan_Rag_%28Joplin,_Scott% 29 In the EU the copyright for this transcription by Richard Zimmerman only lasted 25 years according to the IMSLP site http://imslp.org/wiki/Public_domain#Urtext_or_Critical_ Editions I have corrected a misplaced natural sign in the bars 2 and 10 of LH of the B strain page 2. The chord requires a C natural not an A natural. Silver Swan Silver Swan Rag is the only known Joplin composition that was released but not printed (there are many that were never released in any form), as it appeared solely on a piano roll arrangement from both QRS and National in 1914. When the first edition of The Collected Works of Scott Joplin was being compiled in 1970, collector Albert Huerta found the National version of the roll in his garage and brought it to the attention of noted ragtime authority Richard Zimmerman of the Maple Leaf Club. Dick then sought the opinions of other scholars as to the authenticity of this undocumented and unaccredited piece, and most all concurred that it was a Joplin composition. With the help of Donna McCluer, Zimmerman transcribed the composition for the Joplin collection, editing out the flourishes and devices that were common on rolls of the period and leaving the essential Joplin framework. A QRS edition of the roll found later actually credited Joplin, helping to codify the parentage of this lovely work. It is probable that either Joplin or one of his publishers sold a manuscript to one of the roll companies when efforts to put it in print were put aside. Presented in rondo format (A B A C A), it begins and ends with the same strain, just as do Scott Joplin's New Rag and Magnetic Rag from the same time period. The primary theme is very stately and simple, much as Country Club, and a nice wraparound for the well-developed B strain. The section is an interesting combination of varying ideas, which may have changed somewhat from Joplin's original intent during the roll arrangement process. Even though it was near the end of his fabulous output, I would not quite call it his "swan song." - http://www.perfessorbill.com/pbmusic_joplin2.shtml Source / Web : | Silver Swan Rag - Scott Joplin - transcribed by Richard Zimmerman | Partition centrale : | Silver Swan Rag (2 partitions) | | |||
