I play ragtime, and am cutting a little 'friends and family' CD of ~20 Joplin pieces. I should be done by June; wouldn't mind a little feedback, if you're interested in listening.

Rag Fest is Sedalia MO, huh? Don't know much about rag (except for Arlo Guthrie singing Ring Around Rosie Rag). Your MIDI files are just the thing to bring me up to speed.

Penny McNeilly from Lansing, MI, USA wrote on May 1, 1999 at 12:00 am

This page is GREAT! I finally know how some of the songs in my book of completel works of Scot Joplin are supposed to be played. I've tried to practice them, but I never heard them being played. So I'm coming back here whenever I need to learn a new piece. Thanks so much, for all the effort you put into this site. It's well worth it for me, I hope it is for you too!

Cassidy Doller from Phoenix, AZ, USA wrote on April 26, 1999 at 12:00 am

I am 8 1/2 years old and I really enjoy listening to the MIDI files of Scott Joplin. My Dad played me the Entertainer one day and I likd it so I asked him who that was. We went to Yahoo to find some sites about Scott Joplin. We found your page and have come back many times to listen to the different songs by Scott Joplin. Thank you for taking time to make this site so that people like me can learn about the music of Scott Joplin

I Love the Maple Leaf Rag

from Essex, , England wrote on April 23, 1999 at 12:00 am

Yes its me again, I don't know what happened there I sent it without realising it had gone. The jist of what I was trying to say was that there are still not enough performers of Joplin coming through and one day his music may fade out- I was just going to wish anyone like myself who has the intention of spreading some of Joplin's lesser known music such as Solace, Gladiolus Rag (but still magnificent music) the very best of luck. It would be a real shame to see his legacy die!

from Essex, , England wrote on April 23, 1999 at 12:00 am

This site is one of the best Joplin sites I have visited! I have no idea how you managed to have the patience to create all those MIDI files! I wish my ragtime files were as well put together as those!

John Watson from Tampa, FL, USA wrote on April 18, 1999 at 12:00 am

Great site. I inherited a taste for this style music from my father. Like almost all forms of music, but Rag and Classical is my favorite, with appreciation for early "rock-and-roll."

Marilyn Crosbie from Vancouver Island, BC, Canada wrote on April 12, 1999 at 12:00 am

I really enjoyed your site. I downloaded the midi clips for future enjoyment. Scott Joplin has always been one of my favourite jazz musicians. I played "The Entertainer" at one time. Don't play anymore due to arthritis. I also got into Swing Band music later on. I enjoy that too.

Larry Dent from Morgantown, WV, USA wrote on April 12, 1999 at 12:00 am

I really enjoyed your page it sure brought some joy in my life. I'm a big fan of Scott Joplin. I can sit and listen to his songs and never get tired of them. We all owe him credit and the respect that he deserved for all he put into music that made the world see different

Thanks so much for including the sheet music along with the MIDI files. I play the piano pretty much by ear, so being able to hear and SEE the music will be a great help to me. Thanks again. Phil

David Chaudoin from Tuscaloosa, AL, USA wrote on March 11, 1999 at 12:00 am

I'm very impressed that a person your age (judging by the picture on your Home Page) would have such an interest in such an old form of music as ragtime. Thanks for making Scott Joplin's collection easily available to us out here in rural America. Also, a particular thank you for your use of the .pdf files and the like to the Acrobat Reader. I've already downloaded the "Fig Leaf" and "The Easy Winners". Thanks again.

Tim Braun from Yardley, PA, USA wrote on March 11, 1999 at 12:00 am

Thanks for creating this page. I am a real Joplin fan and I love to see how people play his music. I recommend maybe adding some original ornimental "drags" Once again it's one of my favorites. Keep the MIDI's Coming!

Joseph Orbi from San Juan, PR, USA wrote on March 2, 1999 at 12:00 am

Great site. Great service. I have been a great fan of Joplin since I first heard his music back in the early 70's. I consider him one of America's great composers. His Treemonisha has some of the most beautiful music in opera...although I must admit the libretto is a bit smaltzy...but then again, so is Verdi. 🙂 Keep up the great work...more people should know about Scott Joplin.

I enjoyed listening to your ragtime midi files. Thanks for sharing them. I know it takes a long time to make them. I just bought some music software to make sheet music. I am learning how to use it. It plays midi files from the sheet music. Keep up the good work.

Rick Snyder from Tulsa, OK, USA wrote on March 1, 1999 at 12:00 am

I play ragtime piano at the Maple Leaf Club meetings and Rose Leaf Club meetings, last Sunday every month, in Pasadena, CA. Am collecting as much ragtime piano sheet music as possible, hopefully the original versions, not "dummied down" simplified or "popularized" arrangements. This is a great project you have here. Hope you can keep it up longer. -- Nancy
