Johann
THE ENTERTAINER
This piece was written in 1902 by Scott Joplin, an American composer known best for writing works in a style called ragtime. It was first written to be played by player pianos before it became well-known among pianists and musicians.
Joplin went on to write 100 original ragtime pieces. Another “rag” he is remembered for is called the Maple Leaf Rag. While ragtime is fun to listen to, it’s not very easy to play!
